The Gathering Place: A Tribute to the Matriarchs of Visual Arts Mississauga
Channel: Art Gallery of Mississauga
Date: 17/01/2017

In conjunction with VAM39, the AGM presents The Gathering Place: A Tribute to the Matriarchs of Visual Arts Mississauga, on view until February 18. This exhibition in our Resource Centre, features this video and works from the AGM Permanent Collection by Shirley Erskine, Lila Lewis Irving, Eileen Oswald and Doreen Renner. The Gathering Place acknowledges the contributions of these four senior female artists in developing the Mississauga arts community over the past 30 years.

The artistic and professional contributions of these women to growing Visual Arts Mississauga (VAM) as a platform for presenting and promoting Mississauga-based artists have not gone unnoticed. All four women, at different times, have assisted in the coordination of or served as a juror for VAM’s Annual Juried Show of Fine Arts – now in its 39th year.
