Here & Now Exhibition

Living Arts Centre, Mississauga ON

November 7th, 2017 - January 7th, 2018

"As part of the Living Arts Centre's 20th Anniversary programs, "Here and Now" features emerging and mid-career artists with a connection to Mississauga. All of these artists currently living or work here, or spent formative years in the community. The work offers a variety of reflections upon identity - personal, cultural or community. The artists explore these themes in a range of media, and present ideals not only visually, but also through sound and scent. These diverse perspectives and practices capture the spirit of today's Mississauga.
Lee Petrie, Curator"
