NGA "Letting Go" Exhibition
October 30, 2023 to January 12, 2024
Gallery Hours: Monday to Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
This special juried exhibition of artwork by members of the Newmarket Group of Artists (NGA) responds to the theme of Letting Go. The artists have responded to the exhibition's theme through a variety of interpretations and media.
"When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be." (Lao Tzu)
On view are artworks that explore the changes and opportunities that life presents. With every opportunity comes a decision, and sometimes that means a dream, or another path must be turned away from. In a painting, for example, each new brushstroke buries whatever lay beneath it, changing the work forever.
The NGA is a non-profit organization dedicated to the promotion, recognition, and celebration of the visual arts in Newmarket. Their main objective is to provide an umbrella organization for visual artists in Newmarket, giving them a voice within the community and fostering a sense of community within the group.
Artwork is available for purchase. All inquiries about the purchase of the artwork can be directed to Sarah Ernst, Supervisor, Culture Services, [email protected].

395 Permanent Collection
Every year since 1999, the Town of Newmarket has been building its permanent art collection that celebrates our rich local history and heritage through purchasing one artwork from the annual Newmarket Heritage Juried Art Contest. Artists from across Ontario are invited to submit works that reflect on Newmarket, including but not limited to the Municipality's culture, society, economy, history, significant events, architecture or natural environment from the past or at present.
Our permanent art collection serves to capture some of the moments, monuments, and reflections of what makes Newmarket an extraordinary place to work, play and live.
