Exhibitions

Gallery exhibitions are the primary focus of the Burnaby Art Gallery

Throughout the year, we offer our visitors challenging, thought-provoking, inspiring and diverse content that represents local, regional, national and international artistic talent. While focused on works of art on paper, the artists presented at the gallery use many artistic languages to contribute to conversations about culture, politics and lived experience.
