The Art of Storytelling, Mentorship, and Collaboration: Timothy Long BFA’86, BAHons’86


Timothy Long BFA’86, BAHons’86, retiring head curator of the MacKenzie Art Gallery, chats with Degrees magazine about his extraordinary career, and Whispers from the Vault, the final exhibition Long curated before his retirement in fall 2024. The show, which runs until June 16, 2025, is drawn solely from the gallery’s Permanent Collection, on which Long has become the definitive expert over the 35 years he’s worked there. “People kept asking me if [the works in the show] are my favourite works from the vault. I said, ‘No. These are my favourite stories connected to works from the vault.’”

Finding Purpose Outside: Jeffrey Gamble BAHons’98

 
Since 2021, Jeff Gamble BAHons’98 and other members of Nature Regina have volunteered to spend mornings at the peak of the spring and fall migratory seasons, searching for and collecting birds that have collided with buildings in Regina’s downtown. In just a few years, the volunteers have collected hundreds of birds, most of them dead. The toll across Canada is grim, Gamble says. According to Environment and Climate Change Canada, it’s estimated that up to 42 million birds die each year from window collisions, although the number may be higher.
