Blyth Friday

Blyth Friday

Come out to Blyth for an evening filled with Holiday Cheer & Community Spirit! From 5-9 PM on November 28th the town will be bustling with activity as downtown merchants stay open late with special deals, activities and guests. Support the less fortunate in our community by stopping by the Touch a Truck/Tractor event in partnership with the Blyth Lions Club Food Drive, stop into the Memorial Community Hall for a break and to find food, art, community organizations, crafts and some time with your neighbours. Not sure of you’ve missed anything- find the Blyth Friday Newsies who will be roaming the main street with maps to tell you all about what’s going on and all the locations you need to drop by to enter to win the gift baskets filled with items donated by local businesses and organizations. Start the Holidays right by supporting local and building community this holiday season. Check out Blyth Friday 2025 on Facebook and Instagram for all the event details.

‘Body Doubles’ by Amanda Baron-artist reception

‘Body Doubles’ by Amanda Baron-artist reception

Please join us Saturday August 23rd at 4:30 to celebrate the opening of ‘Body Doubles’ by Amanda Baron.

In Body Doubles, Amanda Baron explores the tension between inner experience and physical form. There is a focus on reflection, transformation, and multiplication throughout the imagery and process. Each piece begins as a digital collage which becomes the framework for a digital drawing, and is then translated through paint, yarn or video. Some synthetic elements are lost in play while texture and tangibility are added.

With a focus on natural motifs, portraiture, and personal symbology, each piece glimpses into a surreal environment, acting as visual metaphors for emotional spaces.
A deliberate imbalance in scale and detail invoke the feeling of revisiting a memory – some aspects rendered with special attention and others flattened into bold graphic shapes. The figures are echoed in their surroundings, as a second body or emotional double.

The exhibit runs August 23rd through October 5th and is open during Blyth Festival box office hours or by appointment with gallery volunteers.
