Students hanging art in the Artery Gallery.
University of Waterloo Art Gallery (UWAG)
UWAG is located in East Campus Hall (ECH) 1239 and is run by curator Ivan Jurakic. UWAG’s tagline ADMIT EVERYONE speaks to an openness where students mix with faculty, professional artists and the community. It is a 3000 square foot space with one large gallery and a smaller space, accommodating a full range of exhibitions and programming. Both the Fine Arts fourth year undergraduate and graduate students work with the gallery staff to showcase their work in annual exhibitions.
Artery
The Artery Gallery is located in ECH 1207 and is run by Fine Arts and SOFA (Society of Fine Arts). The Artery offers students an opportunity to develop their curatorial skills and to exhibit their artwork. ECH 1217 is used as an additional exhibition space for digital media projections.
