Public Programs

Print

Burnaby Art Gallery programs are designed to interpret works in our exhibitions–both from the City of Burnaby Permanent Collection and works on loan. Hands-on programs and discussions of works on exhibit engage participants and foster the development of technical skills, personal expression and critical thinking. We also offer programs for homelearners.
