Pavilion Art Galleries
The Pavilion Art Galleries are open daily from 9:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.
One of Winnipeg's most recognizable and beloved landmarks, The Pavilion has served as the heart of Assiniboine Park for over 100 years.
The original building was constructed in 1908, one year before the Park officially opened, and replaced with the current structure in 1930 following a fire.
Today, the beautifully restored Pavilion is home to the largest collections of works by renowned Manitoba artists Ivan Eyre, Walter J. Phillips, and Clarence Tillenius. Through WAG@ThePark, a partnership with the Winnipeg Art Gallery (WAG), Park visitors enjoy free entry to expertly curated exhibitions, drawn largely from the Conservancy's collection, as well as from the WAG's vast holdings.
Ivan Eyre Gallery (3rd Floor)
O(e)uvre: Commemorating Ivan Eyre
This exhibition is a celebration of the life of one of Canada’s most distinguished artists – Ivan Eyre – in the wake of his passing this past year. It presents the artist’s range of style and subject matter, framed by one of his most iconic ideologies: Art should remain subjective to the viewer to preserve its relevance and secure its longevity. The exhibition plays with the theme of “openness” by exploring how art can be a window, door, or mirror to the audience.
