Thank you for making galaMODERN a success!

On November 30, 2022, we raised over $125,000 for our school tours program! This meets our annual goal, ensuring that children across Saskatchewan have access to inspiring art experiences for the coming year.

Look back at galaMODERN 2022

In 2022, galaMODERN celebrated the work of Dorothy Knowles. The Saskatoon-based painter, best known for her stirring landscapes, has been creating work for more than 70 years. Now in her mid 90s, Knowles is a Member of the Order of Canada and the Royal Canadian Academy of Arts.

Guests at galaMODERN had the opportunity to fete Knowles and recognize her impact on both the local and national art communities.
