Saskatchewan is awash in
a rich visual arts and handcraft tradition. Of course, we
are especially proud of our own Permanent Collection and the
exhibitions we have mounted from it. You will find easy access
to the Collection and Exhibitions from the links menu here.
But our Collection only tells part of the story of the visual
arts in Saskatchewan. We encourage you to visit the sites
of the galleries, art museums, and artist-run centres that
are supported by the Arts Board. Snapshot descriptions and
links to these sites may be found under Our Story/Friends
& Links.
We are most pleased to launch this portion of our site by
showcasing Biennial SCAM - an exhibition by the consortium
Small City Art Museums [on the prairies]. This is an on-line
exhibition designed and mounted by the Arts Board under the
direction of and in collaboration with SCAM members. It complements
the 2003 exhibition jointly curated by these institutions
and which will be toured to their venues over the next 12
months.
We look forward to working with the visual, crafts and media
arts community to develop other contributions to this Showcase
page in the months and years ahead. In the meantime, we are
confident you will enjoy your visit here as you experience
the insight and wonder of our visual arts community.
