On November 30th, 2023, we celebrated our 37th Exhibit with a well attended gala featuring entertainment by the students of Glendale Secondary School - Program of the Arts, and our new catering team from the Café at MIP. The call for entry for our 38th Exhibit is now live on this website. APPLY NOW!
Taking a Breather
Art in the Workplace has decided to pause our exhibit cycle during the summer of 2023. Exhibit 37 will be delayed for 4 months with the call for entry being posted August 4th, 2023. Those artists exhibiting in Exhibit 36 are being asked whether they would like to leave their work with us for an extra 4 months. We are taking this break to review our program with plans to return in the fall “New and Improved”.
Exhibit 36
Exhibit 36 is now installed with the locations of all artwork uploaded to the Gallery listing on this site. Please come and visit the exhibit anytime Monday to Friday, 8 AM to 6 PM. The opening gala is March 30th from 7 to 9 PM, and brochures will be available at that time.
Construction!
Due to some planned construction activity on the 2nd floor of the Atrium, we have had to move some artwork around. All work on the north wall and around the rear elevator has been moved to the freight elevator area, the south wall or the south exit hallway on 2A. A few pieces on the south wall were moved to the south exit hallway or the freight elevator area on 2A. The locations for all moved work have been updated on our website.
Exhibit 35
The exhibit is installed, and we are making our final preparations for the opening gala, Thursday, November 24th from 7-9 PM. Musical entertainment will be by the students of Glendale Secondary School - Program of the Arts.
Exhibit 34
Exhibit 34 was installed the weekend of June 25-26, and the artwork locations were uploaded to our Gallery page today. Many thanks to our volunteers who give up a good chunk of their weekend to get the exhibit curated and installed. It looks great. Do plan on coming to the opening on July 28th.
Exhibit 33!
The jurying process for Exhibit 33 is completed. Submitting artists have been notified and the accepted artwork can now be viewed under the Exhibit 33 tab on our Gallery page. These works will be installed towards the end of March, 2022 and will remain on display until late June 2022.
Make Your Own Gala
Our board has made the difficult decision to cancel the opening gala that was planned for November 25, 2021. Instead, we are planning a more spaced out “Make Your Own Gala” December 3rd, 6th and 7th between 10 AM until just before 7 PM. We are planning to have hosts available during those times, and printed exhibit brochures will be available.
Please note that the Atrium is now open to visitors on weekdays until 5:00 PM with proof of vaccination, mask and distancing requirements. You must enter at the front door to be screened by security.
Resuming Operations
The Atrium@MIP is reopening to visitors on weekdays from 7 AM to 6 PM beginning August 3rd, 2021. We are starting work on preparations for an opening gala event for the currently hanging Exhibit 32. That will of course depend on whether things can continue to open up over the next few months. That event is scheduled for November 25th, 2021 from 7 to 9 PM. After that, we expect to be back on track with our normal schedule of 3 exhibits per year.
300 Works Sold!
With the sale of the acrylic Muskoka Lake by Jolanta Stanisz, we’ve now recorded 300 works sold for a total of just over $100,000. The current exhibit also has the 6,000th work that we’ve exhibited. We’re looking forward to the end of COVID-19 restrictions and getting back to our 4-month exhibit cycle. Until then, those of us at MIP continue to enjoy the works that are here.
