“Neighbourly” A National Juried Art Exhibition

July 18th to August 16th

Hello Neighbour,

I’m so happy you’re here and taking the time to explore Neighbourly, a National Juried Art Exhibition running from July 18 to August 16, 2025, at Coles Art Market.

This show began with a simple idea, the word neighbour, and quickly opened up into something much more expansive and human. The works featured in this exhibition explore what it means to live beside, with, or in relation to others. Some pieces are tender, some questioning, some playful, and all are deeply considered. We’re proud of the conversations they spark.

Right after this note, you’ll find Nathan Dunn’s curatorial statement, a thoughtful reflection on how this show came to be and what it invites us to consider. Following that, the catalogue includes all the works juried into Neighbourly from across the country.

We hope you’ll take your time moving through it. And if you’re in the area, please come by Coles Art Market to experience the exhibition in person. There’s nothing quite like seeing the work up close, feeling the energy it carries, and sharing space with others in reflection and conversation.

If you’d like to purchase any of the available artwork, please call 705-789-3205 or email info@colesart.ca.

Thank you for being part of this, and remember to cheers your Neighbour.
