Introducing Central Frederick’s newest Art Gallery.

Our Unconventional Art Gallery

#ourartgallery

Located on the exterior of what was once The Atlantic Variety Store at the corner of Samuel and Brubacher Streets. This installation hopes to bring beauty to an empty space. It will consist of the artwork of 7 local painters, who will be challenged to work with the limited palette of the buildings’ existing 5 exterior colours.

Where: The old Atlantic Variety Store


What: Artwork installed onto the second floor windows facing Samuel and Brubacher Streets.


Who: Central Frederick Neighbourhood Artists.


How: Neighbourhood artists were given a pre sized piece of wood, and a palette of five colours, pulled from the same colours of the existing exterior, to create their own (family friendly) art.


When:

January 2017-  John Cunningham drops me a note saying "...keep those ideas flowing, in the age of electronic, any physical thing that can catch a child's attention is a truly wonderful thing."

February- An idea is hatched!

March-April- legal permission to create a gallery


May 2017- Fundraising Blast

June 2017 Supplies bought

July 2017 Panels distributed to artists

September 2017-  Artwork installed!


#Our Art Gallery is a fun project initiated by neighbours who have volunteered their time to coordinate, create and, maintain it.  

We hope you enjoy it!


The Atlantic's biggest financial sponsor is the Central Frederick Neighbourhood Association. They run a program called Mini-Grants, for residents of the neighbourhood to access funds for an idea that benefits everyone where we live.
