Bobbie Burgers: Assembly

Step into a playful and thought-provoking world with Assembly, an exhibition by Vancouver-based artist Bobbie Burgers at the Burnaby Art Gallery. Known for her bold use of colour, collage, and found materials, Burgers invites visitors to explore how images, objects, and ideas come together to create meaning.

This exhibition is well-suited for art lovers, families, and curious visitors of all ages who enjoy contemporary art that feels approachable, imaginative, and engaging. The Burnaby Art Gallery’s intimate setting allows visitors to experience the work up close and at their own pace, making it an easy and rewarding stop during a day at Deer Lake.
