Steam Whistle Brewing hosts monthly art shows and exhibitions in our Retail & Hospitality area to showcase local creative talent. Although many are established artists, some exhibitors are showing for the first time. Steam Whistle does not charge rent for our gallery space, nor do we take commission on any works that sell. At the close of each show, one piece of the artistís choice is donated to our collection.
All exhibitions are open free to the public - Monday to Saturday 12noon to 6pm and Sunday 12noon to 5pm.
The show is comprised of 7 Third Year Photography students. Grouped together based on artistic merit rather than overriding themes, these up-and-coming young artists offer unique insights into issues pertaining to the reinvention of the document, exploration of identity and historical vs. contemporary processes.

Sol Studios is, in many ways, a visual journal of my path of discovery to the significance of the Sun [SOL] and its many interconnected relationships to both our physical being and our spiritual being [or SOUL]. I explore this through the many literal, figurative and symbolic references to the Sun (light, spark, fire, etc.) that are present throughout the history of our collective human experience.

Having returned, they are now participating in an ambitious program of exhibitions, coinciding with International Polar Year.
