About APAGA
The Atlantic Provinces Art Gallery Association (APAGA) was originally incorporated as a non-profit society in 1975 by its five founding members:
APAGA is an alliance of art galleries and artist-run centres whose members have worked together for over 33 years to promote high standards of excellence and uniform methods in the care and presentation of works of art. The Association encourages the closest possible co-operation among art galleries, museums and artists to assist in the development of visual art centres in the Atlantic Provinces. APAGA works in close co-operation between itself and other art galleries and museums throughout Canada and elsewhere. The Association serves as an advisory body in matters of professional interest.
Objectives of APAGA
APAGA Executive
The association is governed by a six member Board of Directors which is elected by the membership at the Annual General Meeting. Between AGMs, the Executive Committee of the Board meets either in person or by conference call. Representation on the APAGA Board is not limited to the directors of member galleries – it also includes other gallery staff who are capable of representing their respective institutions.
