Experience Art in the Age of Technology!

Digital media has been included in Surrey Art Gallery programming since the mid 1990s. The Gallery developed its first website in 1994 and a number of the Gallery's exhibitions and events have used the Internet, electronic components, or computer equipment. Like other contemporary art museums, the Gallery has proactively responded to new developments in art and has provided visitors with opportunities to learn about and experience contemporary art using new medias.

The TechLab was conceived as a means by which the Gallery could acquire the tools to exhibit work, build an audience for new media, and have an in-house media specialist to assist Gallery staff anticipate programming that required new media.
