The annual Focus Art Juried Fall Art Exhibition is back for another year featuring the work of 39 different artists from the region.
“The quality of the work really is amazing,” said Focus Art member and participating artist Elaine Arkwright. “There’s a great variety of work for people to see. The exhibit is a great way to make art accessible for people to enjoy in a popular public space.”
Residents can stop in and view the work – and vote for their favourite in the People’s Choice Award – over the course of the next two weeks. The show is located inside the old GameStop space on the second floor of the shopping centre and admission is free.

The exhibition runs Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, both this week and next, during the following hours:
- Thursday/Friday: 10 am – 6pm
