“Greenbelt” showcases original artwork by the Connections Fibre Artists and is a rare opportunity to see their artwork in Toronto. The exhibition is inspired by Ontario’s Greenbelt, now celebrating 20 years, and features a wide variety of fibre art including wet felting, stitching, quilting, collage and mixed media.
Each artist brings a unique perspective to the exhibition, reflecting the diversity and beauty of the landscapes, waterways, and communities that make up Ontario’s Greenbelt. These works invite viewers to consider our relationship to this vital resource and the importance of safeguarding the Greenbelt for future generations.
