Time to get your Present Tense submissions ready! Drop off is June 19 – 22, 11AM – 4PM. The exhibition is on display June 26 – July 20.
Present Tense is an annual exhibition featuring the creative work of GPAG members. We are also partnering with the CCA’s Purple Banner Studio Program to highlight artists with studios available for visiting during the exhibition. We accept one artwork from every artist in any medium and style, as long as it adheres to our max. size restriction of 16″ x 20″. Find more info, guidelines, and entry forms online or in person at GPAG.
Interested in showing more of your work at GPAG? Members are also invited to submit up to six Tiny Artworks to our Members’ Tiny Exhibition on display in Joe’s Lounge during Present Tense.
The Hackett Park Artisan Fair is an annual gathering of local and regional vendors. The Fair has been an annual tradition on the Coast for 34 years, and attracts close to 5000 visitors seeking to discover the creations of artisans who are jury selected based on talent, originality, and the unique items they have to offer for sale. In keeping with our ongoing tradition, the fair will coincide with the popular Festival of the Written Arts (August 11th-14th, 2022, celebrating 40 years!)
This year’s Fair will take place in the lower field of Hackett Park and at the Arts Centre.
We will have live musicians in Hackett Park’s new amphitheatre and fun activities at the Arts Centre. There will be a large variety of artisans, artists, entertainers, and food vendors!
Entrance by donation!
