Miramichi Art Core

A Year of Creativity and Collaboration By Terry Power

The Miramichi Art Core had a very busy spring and
summer. The 2024 season started again with our group show
in Galerie ARTcadienne at the Carrefour Beausoleil in April.
The exhibit of new original work by our artists was well
received again this year, with plans in place for another show
in April 2025. May saw two meetings with ArtsNB in the
Miramichi region. One was at Metepenagiag Heritage Park
and the other at Carrefour Beausoleil. The networking
sessions were very informative, and we intend to strengthen
our relationships with ArtsNB to further promote the arts in
Miramichi.
In June the group had two weekend gatherings and paint-
outs at Terry Power’s place in Hardwicke, with several paint
mediums being explored by the artists.
On July 13/14 the group hosted a Plein Air event at the
Beaverbrook Kin Center in Miramichi with local and visiting
artists painting outside around the town square and other
nearby locations. An Art Tells Stories show of recent works
by artists from Miramichi and Bathurst was also showing in Miramichi Art Core members were painting in the Town Square
the Center. In August the same Art Tells Stories show was during Plein Air Festival in July.
