A student-run exhibition space within the Fine Arts Building, the B Gallery is run by a volunteer team of Western students and a department faculty advisor. It is a safe, professional space for Western students to independently and creatively exhibit their work. It is an ideal space for artists to organize what is often their first exhibition.
