July 12th, Sunday. 2:00 – 3:00 pm. Becky Reesor – Stop the Clock: Immersive Piano Experience

One afternoon. One piano. The room transformed. Becky Reesor pairs live, original music with large-scale nature projections in a continuous, cinematic performance that blurs the line between concert and experience. This is music that moves through you rather than past you. It’s designed as a place to reset. Whether you go to concerts every month or haven’t been to one in years, Stop the Clock is built differently. No setlist energy, no intermission, no applause gaps — just sound, image, and the rare feeling of actually slowing down on a Sunday afternoon. One afternoon only. Come as you are. Leave a little lighter.

Each spring we look forward to hosting our annual “What’s in the Box?” fundraiser! Join us for an entertaining evening of delicious food, fine drink and an opportunity to support local artists. Funds from this event go towards our Artist’s Rights Fees program to support the artists who exhibit their work in the Saint John Arts Centre galleries.

During the event, you may have the chance to purchase a ‘mystery box’ containing a piece of original art. Each mystery artwork is generously donated by local professional artists. The demand for boxes is high, so attendees can choose to enter the draw for a chance to purchase a mystery box. Don’t fret if your ballot isn’t drawn – you can also support the artists directly by purchasing their work on display during the event.

Stay tuned for information about this annual event!
