The Stuart Collection is a collection of public art on the campus of the University of California, San Diego. Founded in 1981, the Stuart Collection's goal is to spread commissioned sculpture throughout the campus, including both traditional sculptures and site-specific works integrating with features of the campus such as landscaping and buildings. It is supported by the UC San Diego Department of Visual Arts, the National Endowment for the Arts, and many private organizations and individuals.

The collection was conceived by and named after its initial benefactor, James Stuart DeSilva.[1] The collection was administered by Director Mary L. Beebe until 2021, when she was succeeded by Jessica Berlanga Taylor, the current director.[2] It contains 22 works by 21 internationally recognized artists.[3] The first work added to the collection was Niki de Saint Phalle's Sun God; the most recent addition is Ann Hamilton's KAHNOP • TO TELL A STORY[4]
