Event Details

Letters to the Earth: Between Despair and Hope will be on display at the Agnes Jamieson Gallery from September 24 to November 28, 2026. The opening reception takes place on Saturday, September 26 from 1:00 PM – 3:00 PM.

Curated by Carmel Brennan, and featuring work by 25 artists, this mixed media exhibition invites communities to participate in an ongoing conversation about the environmental crisis—one that is affecting people around the world and Canadians directly. Brennan believes that we must not only begin this conversation, but continue it, asking: How can our actions and creative practices truly make an impact today?

Through her curatorial experience, Brennan has observed that audiences respond most strongly to the creative arts when stories are shared that communicate urgency, care, and meaning. To participate in Letters to the Earth, artists are asked to handwrite a personal letter to the Earth and submit it to Brennan alongside their artwork. This gesture underscores Brennan’s belief that environmental action must be personal to inspire real change.

The opening reception will take place on Saturday, September 26 from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM. Opening remarks and a dance performance by contributing artist Noriko Yamamoto will start at 1:30 pm. All are welcome. Refreshments will be served. Admission is by donation.
