We are committed to fostering excellence, innovation, belonging and community in all that we do.

The Gibson Art Museum’s mission is to encourage open and inclusive learning about our past, current, and future worlds—including crucial considerations of the west coast region—by supporting the work of critically engaged and research-driven visual artists. We welcome diverse audience communities with free, year-round programming, activating artists’ work through the creation of research opportunities, exhibitions, commissions, publications, residencies, and a diverse array of public events, within the context of Simon Fraser University.
