Another pop-up exhibition is springing up at the Gallery at Queen’s Park.

The Arts Council of New Westminster gallery is hosting The Glory of the Garden, featuring the work of the Garden Gals art group, from March 30 to April 3.

An opening reception is set for Wednesday, March 30 from 6 to 8 p.m., and everyone is invited.

The Garden Gals are a subgroup of the longstanding New Westminster Horticulture Society. Ten years ago, members held a drawing session in a member’s garden, and there was enough interest to start an art group.

A decade later, the active group of sketchers and painters continues to bring to life their passion for art in nature. Their core values are to “celebrate the glory of the garden through art and to promote an appreciation of nature and urban green space by sharing their visions through paintings,” a press release notes.

For more on the exhibition, see www.artscouncilnewwest.org – or stop in to the gallery at Centennial Lodge to see it for yourself. The gallery is open Wednesdays from 1 to 8 p.m. and Thursdays through Sundays from 1 to 5 p.m. It’s closed Mondays and Tuesdays.
