Our 14th Birthday Celebration, Saturday April 18, 2026

 April is our birthday month. GAS opened April 1, 2012 with a solo exhibition by Max MacDonald.    Over the past weekend we celebrated with a drop in for members and friends of Gerrard Art Space. After the reception, Max, on behalf of himself and his wife Mila, sent us a message. With his permission, I have decided to include that message with this post:

What a great event to celebrate GAS, and what a positive turnout yesterday. Kudos to GAS and its steadfast, tireless trio of Samanta, Dahlia - and of course Jo! - the heart and soul of GAS. Congratulations, too, to all of the artist members over the years and to the many patrons who have kept coming back to support this institution and its myriad events for 14 years and going... we're very happy for GAS and look forward to its future.

Cheers,

Max & Mila

I embrace this message,  and all the other wonderful well wishes we received during the reception and over the years since that very first day 14 years ago, with a mighty thank you and tremendous dose of gratitude.  Because of everyone’s faith and unwavering support, we’ve been able to, and hope to continue to, keep going.
