About
Explore this virtual showcase of artwork created by Alumni of St. Lawrence College in response to the theme "Wish You Were Here".
Housed inside the Brockville campus of St. Lawrence College, the Marianne van Silfhout Community Gallery is currently closed to the public due to the pandemic. "Wish You Were Here" is a double meaning of:
1) our longing for the public to be able to visit the physical gallery when it is safe again, and
2) artwork inspired by thoughts of longing, memories of happy times, places and people, and much more.
Vote for your favourites! The artworks that receive the most votes will be awarded cash prizes!

Organizer
Marianne van Silfhout Gallery
The Marianne van Silfhout Gallery is a state-of-the-art community art gallery located at the front atrium of the Brockville campus and is the focus of the visual arts for Brockville and the surrounding region.
Creation of the gallery was made possible by a major half-million dollar bequest from the estate of Marianne van Silfhout, a graduate of the Fine Art program at St. Lawrence College, as well as numerous donors to the St. Lawrence College Alumni & Development Office. Behind this gift is Marianne’s belief that wilderness adventure, education, and art are inextricably bound together in an experience of enduring value and benefit to humanity. The bequest also funds bursaries for both part-time and full-time Fine Arts students at St. Lawrence College.
