Art Gallery of Hamilton, Major art museum in downtown Hamilton, Canada.

The Art Gallery of Hamilton is an art museum in downtown Hamilton with collections of works by Canadian and international artists. The building features distinctive brutalist architecture that houses exhibition spaces showcasing various artistic styles and mediums.

This institution was founded in 1914 as the Municipal Gallery of Hamilton, beginning with a modest collection. It relocated to its current building in the 1970s and expanded into a major regional art institution.

The gallery's core is the Bruce Collection: 29 paintings by Hamilton-born William Blair Bruce, given by his widow Carolina Benedicks-Bruce on condition they be shown publicly. The Volunteer Committee, founded as the Women's Volunteer Committee, funded over 100 acquisitions between 1954 and 1975 and still supports purchases. Joey and Toby Tanenbaum donated more than 200 19th-century European works in 2003 and an African art collection in 2010.

The entrance sits at the end of a covered passage off King Street West, not on the main road, because the planned Plus 15 elevated walkway system was abandoned. The Irving Zucker Sculpture Garden lies to the south of the building, on the space once reserved for those walkways. The property belongs to the city and the gallery occupies it under a lease.

The 1977 building was designed for an entrance on its second level, reached by municipal elevated walkways around Commonwealth Square. That Plus 15 system was abandoned, so the entrance sits on a covered street and the square is cut off from the road. The 2005 renovation added a pavilion and the Irving Zucker Sculpture Garden on the former walkway space.
