Our custom line of scented candles was inspired by our love for Smith College and the incredible art in our Museum. The Smith Series of 4 candles pays homage to the seasons that are so beautifully reflected across campus, featuring landscapes by American and European artists. The Museum Series of 2 celebrates SCMA itself, highlighting prints by Asian artists. Each of the six candles was fully designed by SCMA— pairing a curated scent with a thoughtfully selected artwork to showcase our love for both Smith and Smith College Museum of Art.
