Mission Statement
The College of the Canyons Art Gallery is committed to serving the
college community and the community at large through exhibitions and
programs that enhance curriculum as well as engage a greater
audience in the visual arts. We hope to challenge and stimulate our
students and the public by exposing them to new ideas and
encouraging them to think independently and creatively about their
work and their world.

About the Gallery
The College of the Canyons Art Gallery operates within the Division
of Fine and Performing Arts. The gallery has been in operation since
our inaugural exhibition in spring 1997 with the opening of our new
Fine and Media Arts Building in Mentry Hall.
Exhibitions
The gallery curates a variety of exhibitions annually. Our
scheduling policy is geared to an interdisciplinary
interpretation of art and culture that features the works of
historical as well as 21st century artists. Through its exhibitions
and educational programs, the gallery is committed to serving our
student population by augmenting our curriculum and encourages
public participation in this process. Along with the exhibition, the
Art Gallery may also present a speaker series which may include lectures,
panel discussions and Q and A sessions with the artist.

Support
Although the gallery is an instructional tool, we
recognize our need for support funds to sustain the exhibition
program, which enriches the college community and the community at
large. We invite you to participate in supporting our inspiring
facility and its longevity by becoming a member of Friends of the
Fine Arts or through you individual gifts. Sales from our
Gallery
Store, which features a variety of gifts, is an additional financial
source of support.

Director's Statement:
I am committed to the philosophy of the
community college system and feel that the Art
Gallery has a unique opportunity to engage the
college community and the greater community at
large in a healthy dialog of the arts in an
educational setting. To that end, I strive to
present a variety of exhibitions on all artistic
levels that include the middle schools, high
schools, college students, local arts and crafts
groups as well as museum quality shows. Through
this variety, it is my goal to embrace,
interest, stimulate and educate.
