Melt Studio + Gallery: Renewal | 2026

Melt Studio and Gallery

Family friendly, Arts & culture

May 16 – June 7, 2026
“And suddenly you know: it’s time to start something new and trust the magic of beginnings.” — Meister Eckhart
As winter gives way to spring—snow melting, days stretching longer, light returning—we have invited artists from across Canada to explore the theme of RENEWAL in our annual Spring exhibition.
This season of transformation is both external and internal. Renewal appears in the natural world and in ourselves: in fresh starts, evolving perspectives, and the quiet energy of change.
The selected artists have interpreted rebirth, growth, and transformation. Working in different mediums, their work reflects awakening landscapes, the renewal of the human spirit, the evolution of ideas, and the emergence of something unexpected.
Join us in embracing renewal in all its forms and celebrating the promise of new beginnings.
We will be hosting an opening reception with artists in attendance on May 16, 2026, from 1–4 pm. Please join us in celebrating the opening of this wonderful group exhibition! All are welcome.
