Kamloops Art Gallery
The Kamloops Art Gallery
Art is an incredible expression of culture, people, memories and creative articulation for all ages. Kamloops has the principal gallery for visual arts in the Southern Interior of British Columbia. Escape from the busy day-to-day happenings for an hour or two and be immersed in an atmosphere of inspired creations.
As a regional institution focusing on contemporary visual art practices, Kamloops Art Gallery demonstrates a high degree of curatorial integrity by maintaining a strong commitment to the community and to local and regional artists. By responding to a diversity of interests and concerns, Kamloops Art Gallery contributes to the cultural climate of the region while bringing Kamloops into a broader discussion nationally and internationally.
The Gallery has four distinct exhibition spaces, each focusing on different types of art and artists. From regional to international, from the student to the master, there is always a broad range of styles and mediums of art to view - and sometimes purchase. Three of the four spaces have free admission.
