We welcome you to visit the Gallery with the members of your household or core bubble. The wearing of a mask at the Gallery is now mandatory in all public areas. All our previously scheduled, face-to-face small group programs and tours have now been suspended.
The Gallery is a place of learning, solace, and contemplation, we look forward to seeing you as your circumstances allow. We encourage you to follow us on Instagram and via Facebook as online programs continue to be developed and added.
Take care, from all of us at the Kamloops Art Gallery.
