Save the date: Creative Connections Annual art show, Saturday, May 9, from 2 to 4 p.m. at the Saint John Arts Centre 💫 “There is nothing more truly artistic than to love people.” ― Vincent Van Gogh L'Arche Creative Connections is a studio art program supporting artists with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities in Saint John, New Brunswick. Our 18 artists work in a variety of media including, painting, drawing, textile, mixed media, and more. Through our work, we aim to celebrate the gifts of inclusion and community, and the diverse experiences of individuals with disabilities. “The Art of Knowing” explores the intersection between creativity and belonging, drawing inspiration from the relationships that transform us. Our annual show and sale is an important milestone in the year for the artists of Creative Connections. Everyone is welcome to come and meet the artists and take in their work. Help us celebrate and maybe even take home a treasure of your own! @larchesj #larchesaintjohn #creativeconnections #annualartshow
Earlier this week we had the pleasure of hosting the tour guides for the Beaverbrook Art Gallery for a tour of the Saint John Arts Centre. They were such a lovely bunch. 🔹 Have you ever visited @beaverbrook_ag ? It is definitely worth the trip to picturesque Fredericton.
