Indigenous Student Led Indigenous Art Purchase Program

The Indigenous Student Led Indigenous Art Purchase Program (ISLIAPP) seeks to transform the composition of the University Art Collections by adding contemporary Indigenous art to the collection. Each year, ISLIAPP convenes a committee of 5 to 7 Indigenous students from the University of Manitoba community who meet with artists and curators, visit studios, to select artwork to be acquired by the University of Manitoba University Art Collections.
