BBOT exhibit: Jacqueline Veltri

Last week, Visual Arts Brampton member Jacqueline Veltri installed her artwork at the Brampton Board of Trade offices. Jacqueline's artwork will be on display for the next few months, returning in the BBOT's unannounced new location. (The block their building is currently will be levelled for the expansion of City Hall.)

Previous solo exhibits at the BBOT include Bridget Aubé, William Band, Marguerite Finlayson, Paul Highgate, Conrad Mieschke, and Keith Moreau.

BBOT is located at 33 Queen Street West, on the 2nd Floor.

Video of John Knox shows

New video (in 1080p, no less) on YouTube of select art from the current and previous John Knox Christian School exhibitions.

John Knox returns with another show

John Knox Christian School's Christmas-themed exhibit has been so popular, we've invited them back for January. On Friday afternoon, staff from the school will be switching over from one set of art to another.

Fridge Front Gallery is open to any school in the GTA: any grade, public or private, can exhibit any art projects they choose, for a two-week period. Fridge Front also features artwork by Visual Arts Brampton's youth class students, with theming based on Artway Gallery's schedule of exhibitions.

Following the John Knox exhibit are shows by Mayfield's Regional Arts Program and of Canada's Paralympic athletes.
