Final weekend to enjoy this stunning exhibition! By Anna Buckie

Parallels: Finding Monet During the War Time

April 30 – May 17
Reception: May 17 | 2:30–4 PM

Inspired by the legacy of Claude Monet, Edgar Degas, Vincent van Gogh, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Mary Cassatt, and the Group of Seven, this collection of pastel works captures the quiet beauty of Windsor-Essex through plein air painting.

Created outdoors and rooted in memory, nature, and resilience, Anna’s work reflects both the peace of Canadian landscapes and a deep personal connection to her Ukrainian heritage.

Join us to experience a body of work that speaks to reflection, healing, and the enduring power of art.
