In 2005, the board of directors approved a move to promote, encourage and exhibit the works of local and regional artists.
The gallery was expanded in 1982. In 1986, it was officially named the Thunder Bay Art Gallery.
The gallery has three exhibition venues that change approximately every six weeks.
