NEIGHBOURLY – A National Juried Canadian Art Exhibition at Coles Art Market

Opening Night Celebration in Huntsville, Ontario July 18, 2025

“Neighbourly” is a national juried art exhibition that brings together Canadian artists exploring the ideas of community, connection, and sense of place. Opening night offers a unique opportunity to be among the first to experience the show, meet the artists, and engage in thoughtful conversation with neighbours both familiar and new.

Featuring over 40 original works ranging from painting and sculpture to drawing, the exhibition highlights a diverse range of artistic interpretations of what it means to be “neighbourly” in Canada today.

Hosted by Coles Art Market in beautiful Huntsville, Ontario, the gallery is known for showcasing and selling original fine art by some of the country’s most accomplished artists. Whether you’re seeking a striking centrepiece for your home, business, or cottage – or need expert guidance in finding the perfect work—Coles offers an exceptional variety of Canadian artworks, including painting, sculpture, drawing, and handcrafted jewelry.

I’m honoured to have one of my paintings included in this thoughtful and timely exhibition. Titled “Lovers in a Dangerous Time,” my piece explores the complex and evolving relationship between Canada and the United States. Set at dusk against a backdrop of ocean meeting snow-peaked mountains, the Canadian and American flags appear gently touching and quiet, almost hesitant. The painting reflects on the delicate balance of our cross-border ties as we navigate changing political landscapes, tariffs, and a redefined neighbourly connection.

If you’re in the Huntsville area, I encourage you to join us for the opening or visit the show during its run—this exhibition offers a compelling and heartfelt look at what it means to be connected.

Opens July 18th and runs until August 17th.
