Additional Information
The MacKenzie Art Gallery is the legacy of Norman MacKenzie, K.C. (1869 – 1936), a prominent Regina lawyer and a pioneer and patron of the arts. From 1911 to 1936 he assembled the first art collection of note in Saskatchewan. MacKenzie provided the impetus for the Gallery when, upon his death in 1936, he bequeathed his collection, along with an endowment to the University of Saskatchewan, Regina College. The Norman MacKenzie Art Gallery opened in 1953 as a university-run gallery, and was located at the Regina Campus of the University of Saskatchewan (later known as the University of Regina). The Gallery quickly developed a national reputation for its leading-edge contemporary exhibitions, and later for its innovative educational and provincial extension programs. In May 1990, the Gallery gained autonomy from the University of Regina and became incorporated as the community-based MacKenzie Art Gallery it is known as today. With the name and organizational change, the MacKenzie Art Gallery moved into its new and expanded facilities in the T.C. Douglas Building at 3475 Albert Street.
