Under the Same Sky

Selections from the Permanent Collection

November 15 to February 21

Guest Curator, Kendal Goodhue

From sunrise to midnight, these landscapes trace the shifting moods of the day. Drawn from the Art Centre’s permanent collection, these works capture the radiance of morning, the activity of afternoon, the glow of evening, and the stillness of night. Together, they show how artists across time have explored light, atmosphere, and the quiet balance between presence and absence.

In Conversation: Contrasts from the Permanent Collection

January 17 to February 21, 2026

Gallery Three

The St. Thomas-Elgin Public Art Centre is excited to present In Conversation, a new exhibition that brings fresh insight to familiar favourites from our permanent collection.  Rather than displaying works individually, this show pairs artworks that differ in mood, style, and technique - inviting visitors to explore how contrasting artists' choices shape the way we see then feel.

Each pairing highlights a unique point of comparison: bold colour, smooth surfaces, textured layers, precise lines and expressive marks.  These side-by-side encounters reveal how artists use visual language to tell their stories, and how one artwork can transform our understanding of another when they share the same space.

Whether you're a lifelong art lover or a curious newcomer, In Conversation offers an engaging, interactive way to experience the collection.  We invite you to visit, look closely, and discover how opposites spark new connections.
