Art shows for Young and Old

Uxbridge Celebration of the Arts 25 Anniversary is all about traditions and on of the constants and traditions would be the 14th Annual Juried Art Show and the Children's Art Show. These are both housed in the Uxbridge Township offices, and the Council Chambers is transformed into an art gallery for 6 days.

This is a long process for selecting the art that will be displayed and honoured AND then selections are made from our jurors and judges as to the BEST. They would have at least 80 pieces submitted for the Juried Art Show, and the Jurors are Maura Broadhurst, Curator of Latcham Art Gallery, Lee Petrie, Curator for the Greater Toronto Airports Authority, and Daniel Colby, local award winning artist.

For the Children's Art Show, the art will have been completed at the end of last school year and presented this year. It is wondrous to see the skill and talent of the youth in our community, and this is one way to showcase their talents.

Both of these shows start with a Opening reception on September 21st (tonight) at 7:30pm. They art will be on display from September 21 - September 26th from 10am - 6pm.
Please come to see the wonderful works and see the future of art in Uxbridge.
