Foyer Gallery

 

ON NOW November 18, 2025 – January 19, 2026


Earth, Wind & Fire: Epic group exhibition


Mixed media, photography, paintings & prints.


The Foyer Gallery in the Squamish Public Library put out an invitation for local artists to create a submission to be part of this wall-based exhibition exploring the elemental forces that shape our world. This ‘Larger than Life’ showcase features a group of artists, each contributing a single piece that interprets theme Earth, Wind and Fire.


Sea to Sky Potters’ Ceramic Showcase


The Sea-to-Sky corridor is home to many artists inspired by the surrounding landscape. Sculpted by these elemental forces this region directly and indirectly impacts our artistic expression. This exhibition showcases Earth, Wind and Fire as muses for many artists spanning many mediums. Sublime and unpredictable, these forces deserve reverence and respect as we pull inspiration from them. Ceramics in itself is a temperamental medium greatly influenced by these forces. From the technical process of making with clay to the conceptual themes, these artists express their own interpretations of Earth, Wind and Fire.


Visit the current Foyer Gallery show at the library during library hours.
