Mandate
Since 1978, the Estevan Art Gallery
and Museum continues to expand the social and cultural horizons of
Estevan and surrounding area by encouraging involvement in the
dissemination and development of artistic, cultural, and historical
practices.
Our Intention
The Estevan Art Gallery is a
public gallery that offers a free exchange of ideas and perspectives to
reflect our rapidly expanding social and cultural diversity. A
strong sense of identity and pride within Canada's rich visual arts
heritage inspires us to be a model of excellence in furthering knowledge
of the visual arts both at home and abroad. With the collaboration
of provincial and national institutions, the Gallery seeks to make
contemporary art accessible, meaningful, and vital to diverse audiences
of all ages.
