Surrey Public Art
Wednesday, June 29th, 2005 by GetawayBC.com
When visitors enter the Surrey Arts Centre, they are invited to explore, experience and appreciate the visual and performing arts. Since opening in 2002 after a major renovation, the Surrey Arts Centre offers more opportunities than ever for people of all ages. The Centre is home to two performing arts theatres, art studios, a gift shop and the Surrey Art Gallery.
Exhibitions
The Surrey Art Gallery is a contemporary art museum focusing on art made since 1975 including international travelling shows, and new works by local and nationally recognized artists. The Gallery’s TechLab presents an ongoing program of digital media artforms. Local art organizations display their work in the Surrey Arts Centre lobby. A full program of talks, workshops and family days accompany exhibitions. School programs explore exhibitions through tours and hands-on workshops. Admission to exhibitions in the Gallery and TechLab is by donation.
