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. Select pieces are displayed 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.
