Thank you to everyone who joined us for our Special Reception in celebration of the All About ART Exhibition at the Art Gallery of Peterborough! It was a wonderful evening celebrating the artists, sponsors, donors, members, and supporters of the gallery. ✨

We are grateful to the many artists who contributed their work, and to everyone who attended, connected with one another, and helped make the evening so special.

Thank you to Missy Knott @singingwildricegirl for providing the evening’s music, and to Chemong Lodge @chemonglodge for the incredible catering. We are also deeply appreciative of our sponsors and supporters whose ongoing commitment helps sustain the gallery’s exhibitions, programs, and community initiatives.

There is still time to support the gallery through the All About ART Exhibition. Artwork remains available for purchase until June 21, with proceeds supporting the AGP and its year-round programming. We invite you to visit the exhibition and discover the exceptional work on view.

💌 Join us on Thursday, June 4 for "Letter Readings from the Archives," an evening of live performances drawn from the letters featured in JoEllen Brydon`s exhibition "Elizabeth Thompson Advises."

Brought to life by incredible voice talent from the area and beyond, including Brad Brackenridge, Phil Oakley, Susan Newman, Rob Fortin, John Hoffman, Susan Spicer, Laurel Paluck and Leslie Ashton as the voice of Elizabeth Thompson, these letters are at times hilarious, vulnerable, brash, difficult, or sweet.

Developed in part through a residency at Trent Radio @trentradiocommunity, the project pulls from a time before comment sections and online forums, when people turned to newspaper advice columns to ask the questions they couldn`t ask anywhere else.

Refreshments to follow

Details:
📅 Thursday, June 4 from 7:00 – 9:00 PM
🎟️ $15 | Ages 18+ (mature themes)
‼️ Limited seating. Pre-registration advised.
