Occasionally the DAC curator organizes exhibitions, drawn from the DAC collection and outside loans, which tour to museums across the country. Organized by the DAC and the Maison Européenne de la Photographie in Paris, the exhibition Jim Dine, The Photographs, so far is touring European and American venues in 2003 through 2005.

Recent touring exhibitions have featured Venetian prints and more recent graphic work by Jim Dine, Jasper Johns, and Sylvia Plimack Mangold.

In 1991 the DAC sponsored a traveling exhibition of sixty contemporary prints from other collections. This exhibition, curated by David A. Greene (B.A. Wesleyan 1989, then DAC Registrar of Collections), constituted the U.S. entry for the Graphics Triennial in Krakow, Poland, and the 19th Biennial of Graphic Arts in Ljubljana, Yugoslavia.

Collaborations with the Yale University Art Gallery
The Davison Art Center and the Yale University Art Gallery have collaborated on four exhibitions drawn cooperatively from both of their holdings. The first three focused on prints by Rembrandt, Tiepolo, and printmakers of the Barbizon School.

The most recent such exhibition, Prodigal Son Narratives 1480-1980, traveled in 1996 to the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute in Massachusetts after its Yale and Wesleyan showings in 1995.
The American Federation of Arts then toured the exhibition to venues including the Reynolda House Museum of American Art in North Carolina (1996), and the Douglas F. Cooley Memorial Art Gallery at Reed College in Portland, Oregon (1997). Former DAC Curator Ellen D'Oench spoke about the exhibition in Portland on 6 May 1997.
