💖 Steps of Strength: Art in Ascent 💖

What an inspiring day at thehuboncanal as we unveiled our Steps of Strength — a collaboration between Halifax Health Arts in Medicine, Charlene’s Dream, and our Arts in Healing Outreach Program. 🎨

✨ Hub Artist of the Week: Joann Grosso ✨

Joann Grosso is drawn to the history and soul of old things; the way age shapes their look, feel, and even scent. Inspired by her grandmother Emma, who saved what others discarded, Joann learned the value of preserving and reimagining cast-off items. She collects overlooked objects, as well as bits of nature she finds along her spiritual walks, transforming them into assemblages that tell stories.

Her process is intuitive, often beginning with a single item or a container of wood or metal. Using old tools and hardware, each creation becomes a word hidden within her, finally spoken through the art. Assemblage making brings her joy and satisfaction, helping her explore change, memory, and belonging.

Discover her work at The Hub on Canal. 🖤

“Loosen Up” Oil & Acrylic Workshop with Souby Boski
Date: Saturday, February 5, 11am - 3pm

Fee: $100 for members, $120 for non-members

You will learn what it takes to "loosen-up" your oil or acrylic paintings and apply paint in a gestural, painterly manner, whether you use oils or acrylics. Simplification is the common denominator. The more you simplify your techniques, the more it frees your mind to concentrate on staying loose. Bigger brushes, more paint and working quickly will take your painting to unexpected places by departing from realism. Bring several canvases and reference photos.

Purchase tickets online at Thehuboncanal.org

February Exhibition Opening in The Founders Gallery Hellenic Impressions…Culture, Olive Trees and the Sea by artist Beatrice Athanas. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Few places conjure mental images of more clarity than Greece. The tattered but unbroken power of the Acropolis. The windmills of Mykonos. The blue and stark white beauty of Santorini perched above the impossibly beautiful Mediterranean. Lazy lunches under the shade of ever present olive trees, capped with ouzo and spanakopita. You can close your eyes and imagine it, or you can view those vistas as captured by the artist Beatrice Athanas. Beatrice became Greek by marriage and the country’s beauty captured her heart. Her work transports the viewer to a calmer, more idyllic place.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Opening Reception on Saturday, February 5 from 4-7pm. Artist’s Talk, 6pm. Exhibition through Feb 27.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
