The Bros. Landreth
Saturday, October 14, 2017
8:00 pm

Canadian alternative country, roots-rockers, and siblings David and Joey Landreth have developed an awesome reputation for their exceptional musicianship that is uniquely their own.  Their debut release,  Let It Lie , is anchored by the bluesy wail of electric guitars, the swell of B3 organ, and the harmonized swoon of two voices that were born to mesh. Over the past decade the group has supported some of Canada’s most talented artists from Doc Walker to Imaginary Cities and in 2015, their debut album,  Let It Lie , won a JUNO Award for best Roots & Traditional Album of the Year.

The ACT Art Gallery & Gallery Shop

The closure of the Gallery and Shop over the summer gives us the opportunity to spruce things up, and this year is no exception.  We’re thrilled with the plans underway to replace both the gallery and shop flooring…we’ll keep the details a surprise for maximum impact when we open again on September 9.

In the meantime, we’re busy preparing for our new First Nations exhibition, Modern Legends, featuring four young and legend-worthy artists: Sonny Assu, Brandon Gabriel, Corey Moraes and Carrielynn Victor.

Join us for what promises to be a fabulous gallery reception on 
Saturday, September 9 from 2-4 pm.


Everyone is welcome!
