As a public university based art gallery, RLAG offers diverse annual exhibition programs, activities and events which fosters creative thinking, critical debate and the exploration of ideas. Gallery programs provide an important resource tool for arts education, research, stewardship and creative community dialogue. By encouraging campus engagement and public access to these resources it is hoped that greater interdisciplinary partnerships and opportunities for the exchange of ideas on arts and culture will occur.
