A New Gallery For Sutton

There is a new gallery opening in Sutton; Brigite Normandin and her partner have bought and are renovating Calvary United Church, a fine old building. Brigite now has her studio downstairs and upstairs will be the gallery. The gallery, called Galerie Art Plus, will open Friday, July 4th with a exhibition called The Voice of the Line, a show of my works. It's an honour to be asked to create this inaugural exhibition and I am very excited. The space is huge, high walls, full of light and a wonderful addition to Sutton's thriving cultural scene. Huge congratulations to Brigite and Peter!

  1. What a lovely idea! I always thought it would be fun to live in an old church...not that I'm even remotely religious, but all that open space is just too inviting. Can't wait to see the space once they're finished. Thanks!
