Coming Soon...

Keep your eyes open for new photos from this semester exhibition, Disconnect!

and maybe...the FDG team will be putting up their art in a special one time only exhibition! Stay tuned!

Vernissage!

Disconnect is the Fridge Door Gallery's 6th exhibition highlighting the amazing student artists of McGill University.

We welcome you to come and visit this new show opening November 17th at 5:30 pm in Leacock 111!

We also invite you to come check out the launch of CanvasWeb, a new online arts journal featuring articles and artworks by students at McGill!

For the first time ever, the Fridge Door will be collaborating with Scrivener! The poetry group has kindly agreed to prepare a poetry reading in conjunction with the underlying themes of the exhibition.

The art is awesome, the music is great, and as always- there will be snacks and drinks!

Call For Submissions!!!

It's that time of year again!!!

The Fridge Door Gallery is happy to announce that we are now accepting submissions for this semester's vernissage, which will take place in November.

*** this information is essential for your work to be considered***

Last semester we had an amazing amount of submissions but due to theme and space constraints we could not show it all. So if your work was not shown feel free to submit again! We can't wait to see the products of all your creative minds!

Deadline is October 30th 2009!!!!

Meeting

The first official FDG meeting will be held on Monday September 21st at 5:30 pm in Leacock 111.

We will be introducing our game plan to all who would like to participate!!! The Fridge Door is always looking for volunteers as there are MANY steps involved in preparing an art exhibition.

If you are interested in helping out with planning, fund raising or the selection of artwork we would love to meet with you!!!

If you have any questions, please e-mail us at fridgedoorgallery@gmail.com


***note*** If you plan on submitting artwork to the Fridge Door Gallery, you cannot participate in the organization of the vernissage.

Vernissage!

Fridge Door is thrilled to present ARTSHIFT, our fifth vernissage on March 19th at 5:00-9 in Leacock 111!

Artshift features the work of 13 of our incredibly talented student artists and deals with ideas of movement and transformation, disconnection and reconnection in an evolving post-post/alter modern landscape.

Canvas, the fabulous art history student journal, will be launching its latest edition that night so make sure to pick up a copy!

There'll be wine, cheese, snacks and music for everyone! Hope you can make it!

Deadline Extension

You're not too late to submit to Fridge Door's upcoming vernissage!

Given the past ridiculous midterm/paper week, we have decided to extend the deadline to MARCH 1st!

So, get going! And let us know what you come up with.

Old news

This is incredibly delayed but in case you didn't catch it last semester there were some articles written about us in both the Daily and the Tribune. The articles discuss Fall 2008 show "Some of Their Parts". Thanks to everyone who made that such a successful show and an extra special thanks to Diane and Anna for writing the articles. You can read the articles at the links below...

Trib: "Art Worth Putting Up on the Fridge"

Daily: "Art for Our Sake"
(Note: I don't think Francois actually said 'avatar' but more likely 'curator')
