In partnership with CreativePEI, December's Art Night at The Guild will be presented by This Town is Small in the Hilda Woolnough Gallery on December 6th, 2024!

There will be an exhibition tour at 5:00pm, followed by a hands-on found object art-making hangout and chat.

Desire Paths is an exhibition of twelve Island artists working in a range of mediums including printmaking, painting, film, drawing, and sculpture. It features recent artworks selected from an open call for submissions seeking original projects that are forward-thinking and incite conversation.

A desire path describes a walkway that emerges when people choose to deviate from constructed routes. Over time, their footfall carves new passageways into the landscape, inviting others to follow, forming well-trodden paths.

Whether exploring the first steps of a new process, cutting against the grain of convention, or observing the impacts of human activity, this exhibition considers how we navigate and shape the world around us

This exhibition features the work of: Will Baker, Chanel Briggs, Andrew Cairns, Millefiore Clarkes, JoAnna Howlett, Sandy Kowalik, Norma Jean Maclean, Jared Perry, Tessa Rose Rankin, Kal Ross, Damien Worth, Leo(Liu,xin)
