Great Music at GAS

Local musicians Sam Cash, Woodshed and Borsky Cai bring the party to GAS, Saturday June 23

We're excited and honoured that Sam Cash and his compatriots are joining us for a midsummer fundraiser. Hope to see you there.

"Sam Cash's songwriting captures a youthful angst, filtered through a compassionate eye... confident, natural use of simple, eloquent language that you'd expect from someone with many more years behind them."
--Hawksley Workman


"The Woodshed Orchestra have this amazing ability to make real life sound like the best musical in the world. I can't name another group of people who sound so joyous together, get to some essential truths about living, and dance their pants off doing it." 
--Vish Khanna, CBC Radio3/ Exclaim Magazine

Young Artists, From the Fridge Door

It might not be apparent from the Gerrard Street view of our space, but four times a week our north gallery becomes a hub for the junior artists attending From the Fridge Door art classes. You can see what the next crop of Rothkos and Picassos are creating tonight from 6:30 to 7:30, or Saturday June 9 from 10:00 to 11:00.  
Better than cartoons.

GAS Looks Up

Sincere thanks to all who came by on Saturday evening to help us celebrate Marlene Pape's latest show of paintings "Keep Looking Up".

Many thanks to everyone who made "Keep Looking Up''s opening reception such a success, including my husband Jeff, and many many friends who encouraged me to go on my eccentric  'stairway tangent'.

Thanks especially to Joanne Filletti for her commitment to, and support of, developing the arts in her new gallery GAS and her assistance in making this show look so great! It is really much appreciated.
