KPC's Kenai River Campus established the gallery in 1985 as a tribute to longtime art professor Gary L. Freeburg who retired after many years of service to the college. The gallery has an established reputation in Alaska as a quality, fine art exhibition space presenting original works, in a wide range of mediums and expressions. Dedicated local and regional artists, including KRC art faculty and student artists, contribute works to be exhibited throughout the academic year.
Its headquarters and visitors' center are on Funny River Road.
