to Nov 8th. The exhibition “Unseen Forces” is a series of paintings that reflect the idea of the unseen forces that often serve as unconscious catalysts to the creative process when working in the abstract, using a mix of standard, non-standard, and recycled substrates including canvas, upholstery fabric, burlap and construction building paper, as a reflection of the artist’s anxieties about the non-sustainable practices involved in the fine art industry.

GPAG: Artist Talk with Niina Chebry
Join us for an Artist Talk with exhibiting artist Niina Chebry on Saturday, October 11th, 1pm – 2pm. All are welcome to join us for this free event!
Niina Chebry’s exhibition A Change of Climate uses the iceberg as a main subject representing a range of sentiments, particularly towards climate change. As we experience more climate disruptors such as droughts, floods, fires, and extreme weather patterns, feelings of anxiety, depression, and hopelessness related to eco-anxiety rise. Through her sweeping moody compositions, capturing of weather and time changes, and variously angled micro and macro visions of icebergs, Chebry aims to generate awareness and discussion and to inspire and stir the viewer.
An Afternoon with Bob McDonald – Host of CBC’s Quirks and Quarks
We’re thrilled to welcome Bob McDonald—acclaimed author, CBC broadcaster, and longtime host of Quirks & Quarks—to the Raven’s Cry Theatre for a very special fundraising event.
With over 800,000 weekly listeners across Canada, Bob is one of the country’s most trusted voices in science communication. He’s just released his memoir “Just Say Yes” and has generously offered his time to support this cause.
This event will benefit the Sunshine Coast Festival of the Written Arts, now in its 43rd year. The Festival continues to enrich our community through storytelling, author events, and literacy initiatives—like the much-loved Literacy Week in local elementary schools.
