SUMMARY:Sarah Sackville: A Year of Light & Saint John Gallery HOP*
DESCRIPTION:A Year of Light : Sarah Sackville \nFifty Two New Works by Sarah Sackville – Funded by Arts NB \nSarah has spent the year of working on a collection of over 50 paintings\, both rural and in town\, mainly viewed from the perspective of a moving car. The work is an attempt to capture an entire year of lighting\, mostly at dusk\, and showcase how the seasons affect light and colour. Initially viewed at AX in the Spring of 2023 as part of her residency. \nSarah Sackville is from Sussex\, New Brunswick. Upon completing studies at the Nova Scotia College of Design in 2001\, she set off travelling ready to paint her inspiration. Her brush found expression in the lush temperate rainforests of the Pacific Northwest\, the vibrant beach communities of the Caribbean\, and historical cityscapes of Western Europe. With worldly eyes Sarah returned to Sussex in 2013 and discovered that her perception of her childhood home had changed by her experiences abroad. Things that were once unremarkable now seemed unique and captivating. She currently paints local New Brunswick scenery\, hoping to direct the viewer to the magic in day-to-day life. \nSarah’s painterly style uses realism to anchor the spectator in the familiar. Skillfully using colour and light\, Sackville effectively blends the real and surreal\, elevating the ordinary to the valued and beautiful. \n“Hers is a rare painterly magic that can make such common\, everyday scenes\, which might easily be overlooked\, resonate with something essentially true. More short stories than novels\, Sackville’s gift lies in her deft manipulations of the grammars of hue\, line\, tone\, and contrasts that gets to the heart of a subject” – Tom Smart\, Director\, Beaverbrook Art Gallery.

SUMMARY:AIDS Memorial Quilt Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by The Kindness Closet and The Sewist\, with support from Saint John Pride. \nJoin us for the AIDS Memorial Quilt Workshop on Fri\, Aug 11\, 2023 at 62 Water Street\, Saint John\, NB. This in-person event is a unique opportunity to honour and remember those impacted by AIDS. \nDuring the workshop\, participants will have the chance to contribute to the creation of a beautiful quilt that commemorates the lives lost to this devastating disease. No prior quilting experience is necessary – our friendly hosts will guide you through the process. All supplies will be provided. \nBy taking part in this workshop\, you will not only learn a new skill but also contribute to a powerful symbol of remembrance and healing. The AIDS Memorial Quilt is a testament to the strength and resilience of communities affected by the AIDS epidemic. \nEach quilt square is dedicated to someone that has passed due to AIDS related complications. Their stories and lives were beautiful\, unique and they deserve to be shared. We ask that each participant shares a story of someone who has passed from HIV/AIDS – this could be someone you knew personally\, or someone who you can read about. \nDon’t miss this chance to connect with others\, share stories\, and pay tribute to those we have lost. Together\, we can create something meaningful and impactful. Join us at the AIDS Memorial Quilt Workshop and be a part of this important initiative. \nRefreshments will be provided.
