Reviews of Art Gallery of Mississauga (Zoo)

John E

A sort of hidden gem of Mississauga, always has a interesting exhibit going on. Probably the only real issue is the size of the gallery which could be so much better if it wasn't so small; they can only fit one exhibit at a time. Price is free but they have a donation box with a recommended amount to be donated of $3 which is fair and reasonable. Good place to go on a rainy day.

There's always interesting events or shows going on, including interactive ones. Great place to hang with friends or bring the family

Impressive imagery

Friendly and kind staff at the gallery. The space is not huge, but lot of different sections with modern and accessible features in the building. We found it bit challenging to navigate into the building. Perhaps some proper direction signs and label will be helpful for first timers.

Community feel. Quiet and inspires deep contemplation.

Best place I've ever volunteer for

Shahnaz Parveen

What a beautiful experience my grandson & I have been there. We met Artist Syed Iqbal and his amazing artwork about Our Libaration war with Pakistan and their ruling party. His artwork was the largest one in that gallery.

Super cute little gallery perfect for kids as it’s small and the walk through doesn’t take long. It’s free but they have a little box for donations as well.

Elegant

Very happy

Yes, it's very small but that makes it easy to get through and enjoy. Knowing that you don't have to Pace yourself or hurry to the next piece of art. Don't forget that it's also free (3$ donation is suggested). Good place to walk through on your way somewhere else at the very least and I like how they keep changing their exhibits (inviting local artists?)

Patrick Gabriel

Well taken care up, although a little sparse. It would have been nice if they had more pieces. But the write ups they had on each piece was thorough.

Mr. “IT god” Wilkinson

Gotta give this place a 5/5. The exhibit with Hazel Mccallion's age progression, and the highly detailed photographs of Square One Mall's Santa were the real defining pieces that made Mississauga a truly remarkable and good place to remember.

Anupam Das

Love this Gallery... Very good place for any Art Exhibition.

Curtis Borel

Fun place to take family when they are visiting you in the Square One Area

Amanda Forest

Kid-friendly space with local artist work on display. Great way to spend an afternoon.

Michelle Baker

It may be small but it’s always interesting! Took my niece and we really enjoyed ourselves. Don’t need more than 30 mins.

Beautiful building

Sarb Singh

It’s peaceful but very small. Nice 10 minutes to look around at all the art. Entrance is tricky and don’t think there’s parking.

Imad Kayyali

I like this place, very active

Mariam Hegazy

Very nice! The artwork was simply beautiful! Only suggestion would be to expand it...it was very small, my friend and I got through it in only like 25 minutes.

Simon MacKenzie

I'm not a cultured man, I don't like wine and cheese, nor do I enjoy discussions on poetry, and I don't listen to classical music. So this way my first time in an art gallery, went with my girlfriend. Maybe I expected more from a free art gallery and I forgot that. It had mostly paintings, fairly small I thought. But I guess it was good, from a not so artsy guy I don't quite understand real "art" but I assume this was some pretty good art

(Translated) People very kindly attended to us and invited us to do art activities. They encouraged my children to participate too (Original) Las personas muy amablemente nos atendieron y nos invitaron a realizar actividades de arte. Motivaron a mis hijos a participar también

Sami Khan

It's small. Like not medium small. But small small. So the experience really depends on what the exhibits are. Clean layout and well maintained otherwise.

Kasia M

Great little gallery, visited first time. The theme was Earth and all the art was speaking of the theme from different perspectives. We were also videotaped for the project they are working on called Crossing Borders. What a fantastic initiative. I will always go back there when in the area.

Armin Van Dyk

Perfect art gallery

Hannah Toope

Pretty artwork, all very diverse, extremely small, its literally two rooms, I'm glad it was free

Lee Draper

I was here they lady at the information kiosk advised it’s free but there’s nothing here

Carl Vincent Urbina

What a beautiful place.....

J.L. Lee

Small and underwhelming, not too bad if visiting the library or square one and have some extra time.

Georgina May

Smaller than expected

Tomeo Ho

We booked tickets on a Sunday and showed up to find out it was closed. Why were they providing tickets for a day that it was closed? On another occasion, I looked online and they said the gallery was open but when we showed up... it was closed. I don't understand why they can't provide accurate hours...

Ava Benjamin-Proctor

Wonderful, had a great time there admiring various pieces from various artists

Mariyam Qureshi

It’s very small art gallery and it’s free Ofcourse. I was hoping to see more artwork.

Hyein Lee

Interesting exhibition in the civic building, where some Hollywood movies were shot.

Mark Bullock

AGM - been to some fantastic talks here, Yoga night, and several other events and had a blast. This place makes Mississauga much more of a warm place.

Greg Heffley

the place is very small its free to enter inside they leave donations for you very small corners kids place

Dillon D'Souza

A great gallery space, have attended for multiple events and often find the space well utilized and works curated with comfortable spacing. The gallery is often accustomed to accommodating less than 50-60 patrons at a time, so it does get very tight, crowded and hard to navigate when the events round in the higher crowds of about 150-200 patrons. All in all, a delightful space and conveniently located just adjacent to Celebration Square at Mississauga City Centre, inside the Mississauga City Hall.

Dr. Zu

Cool place in City Hall to look around for free!

Aromatics Canada Inc.

Nice and clean. Beautiful pieces.

Val V

Great place to absorb some culture locally!

Sagar Bhatt

AMAZING art exhibitions even if you're not an artsy person. Culturally significant, but I haven't seen work from particularly famous people.

Sima Chowdhury

Lovely gallery but TINY.

Lynne Mack

Very modern and way out exhibitions

Olgierd Wisniowiecki

Very very tiny gallery. This should be much bigger institution.

Diana R

윤형준

Katharina Dannenberg

Marble Palazzo

Lauren Tran

The art here is really nice even though it’s a small space

Skye Marchment

A free space to enjoy art. Great space to showcase local talent and learn about different cultures. It doesnt host a huge variety but it's a large space and gives you something to do, donations are accepted and the building is gorgeous inside.

B. J.

Strong recommended to visit

Akaashi Khan

Great place to go check out local artists

Javed Sheikh

Adeeba Naseem Butt

It was nice to attend

Jorge Chon

Small, not interesting, no history.

Dave “Blueshound92” Blueshound

Everyone should visit here

Anthony Baranyi

Small public art gallery specializing in contemporary art with an emphasis on Indigenous art.

Lyudmyla Pashkivska

There is a small collection of work. There are interesting aboriginal portraits and photographs of queer individuals. The other work is a bit more difficult to understand.

Mark Chen

While attending a farmer's market in celebration square, I became intrigued by a flashy zig zag sign directing me to the art gallery. After hearing that it was free admission, I thought why not, I'll give it a shot. To summarize, this art gallery is unlike most that I have been to. The receptionist greeted me with a friendly smile and gave me some information about both the gallery and the show. I was surprised to learn that the gallery has been there for about 26 years. Their current show is on Indian art and activism; a subject that I knew little about. Luckily, there were videos and an attendant that gave me a detailed and casual tour. This show seems to have a bit for everyone. There's a rickshaw that kids seems to enjoy playing with, and a lot of rich history for a buff like myself. Definitely worth a trip and an amazing way to learn more about the world in our own community.

Randy Bobandy

Great for a quick visit. Plus it's free!

Mustafa Diwan

The current displays focus generally on Indigenous Women and border crossing.

Samuel Zhao

Doesn't deserve the name of "art gallery". Nothing but grade school level work. Regretted the suggested donation I made upon entering.

Carmine Vescio

My posting is a reflection of my love of all art. Art Gallery of Mississauga is a must visit especially for their permanent art for eg,. The Group of Seven and Indigenous art on display. Lots of parking and amenities steps away in the huge Square One.

Elaine Li

small but getting better and better exhibits

Colin Tyler

Creative display of artistic talents.

Alex Jones

No good collection of the art, small corner place. Instead of calling it gallery, they should call it kiosk.

Drew Lagiano

nice place to visit

Rob Sooklal

So cool and informative. Patrons were amazing.

Oluwatosin Otakoya

Lovely place to host events. There's also free parking on the premises.
