The Neighbour’s Art Hive Opening Party

Dec 11, 2025, 6:30 PM - 8:30 PM

The Neighbour’s Art Hive returns to the RMG this December through February in collaboration with the LivingRoom Community Art Studio thanks to generous support of the Ontario Trillium Foundation. Join us in Gallery A on December 11 to launch this year’s project and learn more about how communities benefit from art hives and art galleries being in relationship with one another. 

Most opening events celebrate art that has already been created – at this event we come together to consider empty walls and honour that which is possible!

Public Practice Art Therapist and LivingRoom Community Art Studio Founder Mary Krohnert will be on hand to discuss the role Gallery Art Hives can play in encouraging creative wellness and growth in community, and guests will have opportunities to participate in the creation of works of art that will inspire others in the weeks ahead. All ages are welcome, no previous art making experience required, just a willingness to play, connect, and explore what making art and being an artist means to you.

The Neighbour’s Art Hive a temporary installation at the RMG that transforms the gallery into an active studio space with help from the LivingRoom Community Art Studio. As a place to make, rest, and connect, the installation supports creative community development, social connection, and personal wellbeing through art-making experiences. This event is free and open to everyone. If there are ways we can support your participation, please contact Hannah at [email protected].

In partnership with The LivingRoom Community Art Studio, The Neighbour’s Art Hive is generously supported by the Ontario Trillium Foundation.
