The SK Arts Permanent Collection is now up in the lobby of Mosaic Tower at Hill Centre III at the corner of
12th Avenue and Hamilton in Regina. The space is accessible to the public Monday to Friday 8 to 4pm. SK Arts Permanent Collection Shortly after SK Arts was created in 1948, we began collecting the art and crafts of Saskatchewan visual artists into a Permanent Collection. You will find everything from paintings, drawings, textiles, ceramics, jewelry, furniture, prints, photographs and sculpture in the collection. The wide variety of styles and media demonstrates the amazing talent of Saskatchewan artists. This collection currently includes more than 3000 works of 750 artists and continues to grow. Its goal is to represent the contemporary art practices of artists within the province for the purpose of public access. We are one of the only collections in the province to collect jewelry. These display cases contain 19 pieces from eight artists spanning more than 50 years. The earliest pieces date from the 1970s, while our most recently acquired necklaces were created by 19-year-old Cherelle Williams in 2022.
