About
About the Art Gallery’s commitment to community: The S'eliyemetaxwtexw Art Gallery (pronounced S-uh-lee-uh-mut-out-ook) has operated on the UFV campus since 1985 and was renamed in 2014. This new name not only acknowledges that the Gallery sits on the unceded territory of the Stó:lō Nation but also confirms the School of Creative Arts’ ongoing commitment to building and maintaining lasting relationships with our Indigenous neighbours. UFV and the School of Creative Arts remain committed to exhibition practices founded on principles of intellectual and artistic freedom, cultural sensitivity, social diversity, and collaborative relations with Indigenous peoples.
Deadline + Criteria
