Upcoming Events

  • Come join us for an evening of poetry!

    Bring your own poetry to share and discuss, and join your fellow poetry lovers in celebration. This poetry salon will feature readings of new and published works by Alison Davis. Alison will also provide poetry prompts to accompany the visual art in the gallery, with an opportunity for guests to share their pieces in between her readings. The evening will culminate in the reading of a community-generated poem, compiled by Alison from playful questionnaires that all guests are invited to fill during the first hour of the evening.

    Delicious non-alcoholic drinks and snacks will be provided.

  • The holidays are here, and what better time to bring out your creativity? Drop in to our studio at any time and take advantage of our creative tools and materials to create a unique piece of art for yourself or someone that you love!
