Opening Reception – meet Eileen MacArthur as she launches ‘Eden’

Join us in the gallery as we officially reveal Eileen MacArthur's new exhibition, 'Eden'.  These works invite us to see parts of nature—like flowers and trees—as if they have human qualities. By doing this, we can think about how people relate to each other and the world around them. Nature isn’t shown as separate or alone, but as part of a bigger community. The natural elements become a way to talk not just about individual experiences, but also about the dynamics of groups and how we all connect in society.

Refreshments will be served, admission is free.  Drop in and say hello, mingle and help uplift the arts, and our community of artists!
