Welcome to the Campus Art Guide! On this site you will find information, images, and the locations of works of art displayed on the University’s campuses.
The University of Regina maintains an extensive collection of visual art acquired during a legacy stretching back to the institution’s earliest days as Regina College. Known as the President’s Art Collection, these artworks have expanded during the tenure of each University of Regina President. Selected artworks are installed publicly on campus – some permanently, and some in rotation – in keeping with the University’s mission of providing the most beautiful, thought-provoking and culturally-rich learning and work environment possible.
The Campus Art Guide provides contextual information about some of the artworks in the collection, both on display and in storage. We welcome questions, comments and research requests from students, staff and the public. Please contact: presidents.art.collection@uregina.ca.
