Our exceptional collection of art, objects, and belongings represents the people and ideas that have shaped our region. We are committed to expanding the accessibility and impact of art and culture in our community through exhibitions and programs that provide meaningful experiences for all visitors.
Glenbow’s Values
Be there.
We are present. We listen. We step up. We show up. We meet people where they are. We earn trust by being authentic and dependable. We are here for each other and we are here for our community.
Spark big ideas.
We empower our visitors and ourselves by encouraging curiosity and welcoming great questions. We imagine more possibilities and we create space for inspiration. We believe that creativity makes our world better.
Take pride.
Remarkable things happen here because we work hard and we are always learning. We take time to reflect and improve on what has come before. We respect the knowledge and experience of others. We approach every challenge with integrity and humility. Our personal passion fuels our high standards.
Together is better.
We welcome all perspectives. What we do is better when more voices are heard. We champion a collaborative environment where people feel respected, valued and connected. We have a greater impact when we work as a team.
Break the mould.
Embrace the opportunity to do things differently. Push the boundaries of what’s expected. Invent something new. Seek out new stories. Amplify voices that haven’t yet been heard. Don’t just welcome change — fuel it.
