The mission of the Southside Cultural Center Gallery is to serve the educational and cultural programming objectives of the City of Reno Parks, Recreation and Community Services Department while endeavoring to engage the varied cultural and ethnic groups throughout the City of Reno. This mandate yields a broad and comprehensive artistic vision which embraces both the educational values of the Parks and Recreation Department and a diverse audience. Because it is broadly defined, the statement allows the gallery a great deal of flexibility to present a varied and lively program. Criteria for selecting exhibitions include artistic excellence; diversity of aesthetic traditions; attention to cultural contexts represented within Northern Nevada; and the educational potential of exhibitions.
