For those hungry for kids art
Fridge Front Gallery, located across the hall from Artway in Shoppers World, is a new kids-only display space. Using old fridge doors mounted on the wall, and magnets, art from young Bramptonians is put on display as if in the kitchen of a very hungry family. Six of the nine fridge doors are set aside for as "Guest Doors", and the other three are for the VAB Youth Classes.
The Fridge Front Gallery debuted with an exhibit of art from north Brampton's Brisdale Public School, itself just finishing its own first year of existance. Next up to bat was Sir Wilfred Laurier P.S. (April 20 to May 2, 2005), a school in Peel Village.
Validation of Voices (May 2 to 16, 2005) followed, as one of three exhibits dedicated to life as a girl. It was organized by Growing Up XX and Peel Community Connections, with the participation of the Boys and Girls Club of Peel. Two other exhibits run simultaneously in a Streetsville Gallery and the Meadowvale Theatre, both within Mississauga.
Finally, Mayfield Presents I (May 16 to 30, 2005) is an upcoming exhibit of historic buildings drawn in pen & ink, as well as works by former VAB students who were or are Mayfield students. The show is guest curated by Mayfield student Sarah Frid, a VAB alumni.
