The gallery aims at providing the McGill campus with a creative arena, where students from any faculty may to show their creative work, and where the student body at large has a chance to view works made by their peers and engage in discussion about visual art. The gallery also provides Art History students with the valuable opportunity to apply critical skills they have acquired in the classroom in practice, and to gain curatorial and business skills through the exhibition planning process. The Fridge Door Gallery team is composed of an executive committee of 7 members and about 10 active volunteers who together curate, organize, and mount the exhibitions.
