About
Join us for our Fall Opening where exhibiting artist Jagdeep Raina will be in conversation with Harji Sangra.
Celebrate the opening of our fall exhibitions:
Jagdeep Raina: Ghosts In The Fields tells the story of resilient BC migrants workers in the 1970s and 1980s through drawings, textiles, and ceramics. Indian Summer Festival is the community partner for this exhibit.
Pass the Mic! is a group exhibition that privileges art created by people who find themselves typically outside the mainstream art world.
Cheryl Pagurek: Winter Garden is an interactive digital collage developed out of a still life photography series during the winter 2021 lockdown.
Join Jagdeep Raina in conversation with Canadian Farmworkers Union organizer Harji Sangra, followed by a poetry performance by Phinder Dulai and then live music.
