Galerie UQO Granted Accredited Museum Institution Status

Led by curator Marie-Hélène Leblanc, a co-researcher with CREAT’s Culture in the Regions Axis, Galerie UQO joins the network of museum institutions officially recognized by the Québec government.

A Major Recognition
Accreditation represents an important seal of quality. It certifies compliance with internationally recognized standards in museum practices, heritage protection, and the preservation of collections and knowledge.

This recognition reflects more than ten years of work devoted to creating and developing a university gallery deeply rooted in its community. Galerie UQO is distinguished by its rigorous exhibition programming and its commitment to producing and sharing knowledge about contemporary art.

This new milestone in its evolution will help strengthen the gallery’s development, expand the reach of its activities, and enhance its visibility.
