A touring exhibition from the Provincial Art Bank of Newfoundland and Labrador
 
25 for 25 is an exhibition that was first presented to celebrate 25 years of collecting artwork from artists working in Newfoundland and Labrador by the government of the province. It also serves as a promotional and educational tool for the Art Bank program, to encourage more emerging and established artists to apply to the program and to communicate its importance in fostering visual culture in the province.
