What's For Dinner
Quest Members' Exhibition
Quest Project Gallery
Date
What's for dinner? It's a simple question that can inspire a world of artistic possibilities. Food is woven into our everyday lives, connecting us to memory, culture, comfort, celebration, and the natural world. From your favourite dessert or the meal you crave when you're feeling under the weather, to farm-to-table traditions, foraged foods, and wild edibles, this exhibition invites members to explore food in all its forms. Whether inspired by flavour, family recipes, growing gardens, or the stories behind what we eat, artists are encouraged to bring their own perspective to the table.
Opening Reception: Friday, January 8th, 2027 | 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM
Artwork Intake Day: Tuesday, January 5th, 2027 | 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM
Finding Your Way
Quest Members' Exhibition
Quest Project Gallery
Date
How do we find our way through the world, and what shapes the paths we take? Finding Your Way invites members to explore identity, personal history, memory, and the many ways we navigate life. Consider the places that have shaped you, the people who have guided you, the histories you carry, or the journeys that have brought you to where you are today. From literal maps and familiar landmarks to abstract pathways, shifting identities, and moments of discovery, artists are encouraged to interpret what it means to find their way.
Opening Reception: Friday, March 12th, 2027 | 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM
Artwork Intake Day: Tuesday, March 9th, 2027 | 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM
Cultivate
Quest Members Exhibition +
Quest Project Gallery
Date
To cultivate is to nurture, tend, and help something grow. This might mean cultivating a garden, building community, imagining a future, or making space for a passion to flourish. Cultivate invites members to reflect on what they choose to nurture in their lives and the things they value, love, and support. From the natural world and creative practice to relationships, shared experiences, and new possibilities, artists are encouraged to celebrate the people, places, and ideas that help them—and their communities—grow.
Opening Reception: Friday, May 11th, 2027 | 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM
Artwork Intake Day: TBD | 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM
Summer Vibes
Quest Members' Exhibition
Quest Project Gallery
Dates
What does summer feel like to you? Perhaps it's a cold glass of lemonade, a garden in full bloom, water gun fights, long afternoons in the shade, or the feeling of being near the water. But summer vibes don't have to be literal. They might emerge through a particular colour palette, a playful shape, a sun-soaked texture, or an atmosphere that captures the spirit of the season. This exhibition invites members to explore their own interpretation of summer, whether through familiar seasonal imagery or something more abstract.
Please Note: There's no formal opening reception for this exhibition; artists and community members are invited to enjoy the show during regular gallery operating hours.
Structured
Quest Members' Exhibition
Quest Project Gallery
Dates
Structure surrounds us, from the geometry of buildings and the rhythm of city streets to the patterns and frameworks found in the natural world. Structured invites members to explore urbanism, architecture, geometry, and the visual language of order and form. Artists might look to the lines of a cityscape, the repetition of windows, the balance of architectural details, or the possibilities of geometric abstraction. Whether precise and orderly or playful and unexpected, works are encouraged to investigate how structure shapes the spaces we inhabit and the ways we see the world.
Opening Reception: Friday, September 10th, 2027 | 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM
Artwork Intake Day: Tuesday, September 7th, 2027 | 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM
High Contrast
Quest Members' Exhibition
Quest Project Gallery
Dates
Contrast is one of art's most compelling tools, creating tension, emphasis, and unexpected relationships between elements. High Contrast invites members to play with the design principles of contrast, exploring the impact of opposites and the spaces between them. Artists might experiment with complementary colours, light and shadow, bold shapes against delicate details, or other contrasting textures and materials. Contrast can also be conceptual: juxtaposing unexpected imagery, ideas, or perspectives to create new meaning. Members are encouraged to explore the many ways opposites can come together to make an impact.
Opening Reception: Friday, November 12th, 2027 | 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM
Artwork Intake Day: Tuesday, November 9th, 2027 | 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM
