CELEBRATING THE BELKIN’S 25TH ANNIVERSARY

June 2020 marked the 25th anniversary of the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery. At this time, we would like to remember and acknowledge the generosity of Dr. Helen Belkin and her family who gifted the funds to build the gallery, which replaced the former UBC Fine Arts Gallery that since 1948 had been located in the basement of the old Main Library (now the Irving K. Barber Learning Centre). Dr. Belkin was also responsible for the establishment of permanent endowments at UBC that support our curatorial activities, art purchases, as well as lectures and symposia. We are sincerely grateful for the continued support of the Belkin family and the Morris and Helen Belkin Foundation.
