The ACT Art Gallery Presents
Judson Beaumont:
Illustrated Artist Talk

Saturday, June 10, 1 pm - 2 pm
Free Event

Judson Beaumont is an acclaimed Vancouver-based wood artist with an international profile. Based at his Parker Street studio in East Vancouver, he has received commissions from Tokyo, Dubai, New York and too many other places to mention! You could say that every piece he creates – and every place he has visited - is reflected in Judson’s unique view of the world. What’s new with Judson? His first children's book is based on his furniture coming to life! Copies of Chester Gets a New Pet are available for purchase at The Gallery Shop. We’re delighted to have this opportunity to present one of the best wood artists – and storytellers – we know. Don’t miss this opportunity to meet Judson Beaumont!

Presented in association with the Wood + Wood Fired exhibition at
The ACT Art Gallery, on until June 10, 2017

The ACT Art Gallery Presents
Opening Reception: Defining Moments

Saturday, June 17, 2 pm - 4 pm
Free Event

Over the past year, Artists Roger Chen and Wan-Yi Lin, have invited the public to share ‘defining moments’ in their lives: instances or experiences that have somehow changed their perceptions about who they are.  The result is an intriguing collection of anonymous public responses which the artists have mounted and installed in the gallery as the Defining Moments exhibition.

Roger Chen and Yan-Yi maintain a studio practice called Mizzonk in Maple Ridge, BC. This project was funded in part by the Maple Ridge Public Art Steering Committee.

Exhibition Dates: June 17 - July 15

Featured Artist

Heidi Lambert is an award winning Vancouver based watercolor painter. Her paintings are realistic and representational, enhanced with deep values and rich in color, selected from subjects that she finds inspiring. Heidi is drawn to subject matter where the drama of light and shadow are a strong factor. Her favorite subjects are those close to what keeps her centered – the water: Westcoast scenes, the ocean and the rhythm of the tides, the ebb and flow of the water. “I am an artist not just because I love to do what I do, but because I want to share all I see with the viewer.” – Heidi Lambert

The paintings of Heidi Lambert are available for purchase until July 15th at The ACT Gallery Shop.

Featured Product

Instantly a hot item in the Shop, Abeego is back on our shelves! Abeego is an eco-friendly alternative to plastic food wrap, made from sheets of cotton and hemp coated in beeswax and tree resin, which helps preserve food by allowing it to breathe. You can clean Abeego sheets easily by handwashing with mild soap and cold water, reusing for years at a time. Abeego food wraps have a lovely natural beeswax scent, and you’ll feel good preventing more plastic from entering landfills. Visit the Gallery Shop and try Abeego yourself!
