rotating exhibitions

Cyclical gallery shows

Rotating exhibitions are displays in museums, galleries, or similar venues that change periodically, as opposed to permanent collections.

The rotation keeps offerings fresh and gives institutions flexibility to showcase different works, themes, or borrowed pieces: The museum's rotating exhibitions draw repeat visitors throughout the year.

Also called temporary exhibitions.
