Dunlop Art Gallery's Art Rental Service offers Regina Public Library borrowers the opportunity to rent, for a very modest fee, original works of art by Canadian artists for placement in home or office. Dunlop Art Gallery offers this service as part of its commitment to make art accessible and thereby stimulate interest in the visual arts.

What is Art Rental?

The Art Rental Service contains over 340 works of art including paintings, drawings and prints produced by artists from across Canada.
