RISE is a space for women to be seen, heard, and honoured. This annual exhibition is an invitation to all who identify as women to share their artistic voices—bold or quiet, emerging or established—across painting, illustration, photography, mixed media, textiles, sculpture, and ceramics.
Aligned with International Women’s Day 2026 and its theme Give to Gain, RISE explores what grows when we offer our time, our stories, our care, and our creativity. What do we gain when generosity becomes a practice? When women lift one another, what becomes possible—for ourselves, for our communities, for the future?
RISE is more than an exhibition—it’s a gathering of voices, a shared platform, and a declaration that women’s creativity shapes culture.
Exhibition: March 6th-27, 10:00am – 4:00pm (closed Mondays, Weekends)
Featured Artwork: Angela Wiggins, “I Am Here”
