The Creston Community Forest & Tilted Brick Gallery announce a 2026 Juried Exhibition
About the Project
The Creston Community Forest, in partnership with the Tilted Brick Gallery, invites artists across the Kootenays to submit work for “Healing Forests: in honour of what forests give us,” a juried exhibition opening in September 2026.
The exhibition explores the many ways forests shape our lives: ecologically, economically, culturally, emotionally, and recreationally. Artists of all ages and working in any medium are encouraged to participate.
This exhibition celebrates that work and invites artistic reflection on the value of forests in daily life.
