Draft:Hatch Art Gallery

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
  • Comment: The Ubyssey is a student newspaper so cannot be used to establish notability (see WP:RSSM). The Georgia Straight is solid but other sources are primary and/or not independent with some making not mention of the gallery so not useful. Also need to either remove the list of exhibitions or significantly trim it to the most notable (meaning received critical attention or similar). S0091 (talk) 15:40, 26 March 2024 (UTC)

The Hatch Art Gallery is a student-run and student-owned art gallery in the The AMS Student Nest on the University of British Columbia's Vancouver campus. The Hatch's annually programmed exhibitions feature work submitted by UBC community members and are planned, installed, marketed, and monitored by student volunteers.[1] The AMS Art Collection is also partially managed by Hatch volunteers and is regularly shown at the gallery.[2] The Hatch frequently partners with other clubs and organizations on and off campus in the planning and execution of exhibitions and events, including yearly exhibitions with the AMS Sexual Assault Support Center and the production of a zine in collaboration with Centre A and Yarrow Intergenerational Society for Justice.

History[edit]

While the gallery has only been operating as "The Hatch" since the 2015, its history begins the 1968 opening of the old Student Union Building (now called the Life Building).[2][3] The works in the AMS Art Collection had been on permanent public display in Brock Hall (the student union building up until 1968) since the first acquisitions in the 1940s, but the move to the SUB was the first instance of dedicated gallery space operated by the AMS and fully managed by students.[2][4] The gallery at this stage had no official name and was referred to with a variety of generic names, primarily the "AMS Art Gallery" or the "SUB Art Gallery."[5] In 1979, the Student Administration Committee moved to turn the gallery space into a temporary cocktail lounge for the first week of classes.[6] This decision proved to be so popular that it was brought back in 1980 and 1981 for a two-month period.[6] While concerns were raised over the marginalization of student work and the possibility of smoke damage to artwork, the AMS voted to permanantly convert the space into a lounge in the summer of 1982.[6] The Art Gallery Programs Committee and Fine Arts Department subsequently opted to open a new gallery space in the same building in 1983.[7][6] The officially named Hatch Art Gallery opened in 2015 alongside the completion of the AMS Student Nest, which featured an updated gallery space with moveable white walls and track lighting alongside better security and storage for the AMS Art Collection.[1][2]
