About the Mendel Art Gallery

 

Overlooking the South Saskatchewan River, the Mendel Art Gallery is Saskatoon’s premier destination for contemporary and historical art, with exhibitions changing quarterly. The Mendel’s permanent collection includes over five thousand local, regional, and national works of art. In addition to exploring exhibitions and associated public programs, visitors can browse the Gallery Shop, spend time in the Civic Conservatory, or relax with friends over tasty treats in Museo Café.

 

The Mendel’s mandate is to operate and maintain in the City of Saskatoon a public museum for the collection, exhibition, preservation and interpretation of works of art and for the development of public understanding and appreciation of art. With over 150,000 visitors in 2008, the Mendel has one of the highest per-capita attendance rates in Canada.

 

The Mendel is open from 9am to 9pm daily except for Christmas Day. Admission is free. For more information on Mendel programs and events, please call (306) 975-7610.

 

The Mendel Art Gallery gratefully acknowledges the operating funding support of the City of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan Arts Board, Canada Council for the Arts, Canadian Heritage, and SaskLotteries.
