New West Portraits
October 16 - December 17, 2020

Join us this Fall at the Anvil Centre Community Art Gallery to experience the New West Portraits group exhibition. Conceptualized as an outlet to respond to the impacts of the pandemic, as well as the resistance and change associated with the societal shifts unfolding around us, the exhibit brought together a variety of New West artists interested in sharing their unique visions. These portraits, which reflect a range of creative expression, from representational to abstract, are unified by underlying themes of community, inspiration and hope.

As of Friday, October 16, the Community Art Gallery is available for self-touring by appointment only Wednesday – Saturday, from 12:00 pm – 5:00 pm. Please note however, that certain times may not be available due to conflicts with other activities within Anvil Centre.
