We respectfully acknowledge that the Art Gallery of Peterborough is located on Treaty 20 Michi Saagiig territory and in the traditional territory of the Michi Saagiig and Chippewa Nations, collectively known as the Williams Treaties First Nations.
Mandate
The Art Gallery of Peterborough is a non-profit public gallery dedicated to exhibiting and collecting visual works of art.
Our goal is to present contemporary visual art by artists from the region and across the nation. Some historical and international works are also shown. The exhibitions are supported with programs including lectures, workshops, and publications. We make curatorial choices in selecting the work for each particular exhibition, whether it is featured in the main gallery or in the smaller exhibition areas.
Vision
A gathering place that engages the community and promotes the arts as a cornerstone of community creativity and development.
Mission
As an exhibition venue with educational programs, the AGP will present a variety of visual art experiences and explorations to stimulate and expand public perception of art as a part of our life and community.
