About the Gallery

Since 1976, the Thunder Bay Art Gallery has served the needs of Northwestern Ontario artists and art audiences while providing an important link to other cultural centres.

As the region's largest public gallery facility, the Thunder Bay Art Gallery's three-fold mandate is:

to research, collect and exhibit the work of contemporary First Nations artists to promote, encourage and exhibit the works of local and regional artists to host travelling exhibitions from other art galleries and museums. With three gallery spaces that change exhibitions approximately every 6 weeks, there is always something new to capture the public's imagination.

 In addition to an ambitious exhibition schedule, the Thunder Bay Art Gallery offers a wide range of educational programs and community outreach services. Art classes for all ages, visiting artist lectures and workshops, and a unique Gift Shop are all part of the Thunder Bay Art Gallery experience.

Centrally located on the campus of Confederation College, the Thunder Bay Art Gallery can be approached from both Edward and Balmoral Streets. The building's exterior is clearly marked with six outdoor sculptures by artists Ahmoo Angeconeb, Mary Anne Barkhouse and Michael Belmore, which are part of the Gallery's Permanent Collection. The Thunder Bay Art Gallery is accessible for people using wheelchairs.
