Update: Renewal show postponed

Our 2020 exhibition, Renewal, has been postponed.  The coronavirus pandemic resulted in the gallery being closed and gatherings restricted until further notice.

We hope to be able to hold the show at the same time in 2021.

Our 2020 show opens in May!

Life begins anew in spring, a fitting time to present our 2020 exhibition titled “Renewal”.

The exhibition and sale of new works takes place from May 1 to 29, 2020, at Kloepfer Gallery in downtown Guelph, Ontario.  The public is invited to an opening reception with artists present, on Saturday, May 2 from 7:00 to 9:00 pm.

Participating artists in this year’s show are: Judy French (oil); Carol Hughes (watercolour); Kim Johnston (water media, pastel and oils); Jean Loney (glass mosaic); Gail Root (oils and chalk pastel); M. Anne Smith (textile and fibre arts); plus new members Dianne Kennedy Cruttenden (woven tapestry); and Heather Wood (glass and mixed media).

 

Final month at the Museum!

Octarine: The Colour of Magic, our 2019 exhibition at the Wellington County Museum and Archives in Fergus, Ontario, has been a great success and we are thrilled with the reaction from the public.  The show will close on October 6, so be sure to see it before then!
