ABOUT
THE GALLERY

The Clara and Allen Gresham Art Gallery is on the campus of San Bernardino Valley College. SBVC's first "Little Gallery" was set up in a temporary building in 1958. The SBVC Art Gallery then moved to the south side of campus at the site of the former art complex. In 2006 the Art Gallery moved to its current location and was named the Clara and Allen Gresham Art Gallery. Allen Gresham was a former Board of Trustee member, and Clara has been a dedicated Gallery volunteer.


The Gallery hosts diverse content to serve and enrich the Valley College and Inland Empire communities. Artillery Magazine has written about some of our notable exhibitions: OUTSIDE LA: Printed Matter and GALLERY ROUNDS: Life By Design. The annual Student Art Exhibit provides art students with experience submitting and preparing their work for public display.
