About
Join us for pre-booked, self-guided exhibition tours as Surrey Art Gallery celebrates its 45th anniversary.
Starting September 19, we invite you to tour our exhibitions at the Gallery. “Where We Have Been” examines the connection between place and identity in the South of the Fraser with over 40 artworks from our permanent collection. Local artists Don Hutchinson and Ying-Yueh Chuang explore the whimsical possibilities of ceramics with fantastical creatures and lifeforms in “Passages,” Carol Sawyer’s video installation “Proscenium” is a playful foray into the construction of images, illusions, and performance, and the Colour Collective shares the diversity of our city in “Searching for Surrey” through vibrant landscape paintings.
Pre-book your visit to see the exhibitions at select times on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays 5-9:30pm and Saturdays 10-5pm. Register online at surrey.ca/artgallery or phone the Call Centre at 604-501-5100.
