El Camino College Art Gallery schedules its programming with a number of considerations in mind. Below is a list of some of the factors we consider regarding programming of exhibitions:

  • Consideration is given to the relevance of artwork to the mission of this gallery.
  • Consideration is given to the relevance of artwork to various programs of study, particularly within the Art Department.
  • Consideration is given to the relevance of artwork to programs of study campus wide.
  • Consideration is give to exhibitions that serve the instructional program in either a general or specific way.
  • Consideration is given to artwork that serve as vehicles for understanding cultures, experiences and viewpoints.
  • Our audience includes the general population of students, faculty and staff at El Camino College, the general public in the community we serve, and the larger museum-going public of Southern California.
  • Our exhibitions feature contemporary art; El Camino College Art Gallery is not equipped to handle historical works of art or work that requires specific climate control.
