Mary came to PIG as one of the original 9 artists four years ago.  The launch was an exciting time and Mary has continued to bring wonderful works to PIG.  Mary paints with oils, but also has some limited edition giclee on canvas available as well. 

As per the rules of PIG, one must own on Piers or be a direct relative who spends time on Piers.  The Jordan's will be leaving Piers at the end of October, so while the weather holds...please join us this Saturday October 3rd 2-4 pm for an Exhibition and Sale featuring the work of Mary Jordan.  

We had so much fun for Christina van der Kamp's Open Air show, we have been continuing, weather permitting to feature a few artists in open air.   PIG will continue in this manner of course when the skies are favorable and we are very happy for private openings for your bubbles, just call.  

We are so excited to be launching this textile artist Christina van der Kamp on August 22, 2020 at PIG.
So close to my heart is up-cycling, recycling and doing whatever we can to reduce our waste on this planet.  Christina takes the notion of up-cycling to a whole new level with her gorgeous gift bags, worthy of everything from teddy bears to diamond rings, fine wines and great scotch! :)

These fabrics have all been rescued by Christina and like a fairy godmother, transformed from pumpkins to golden carriages. 

We will have a lovely selection of gift bags by Christina for her launch on Saturday August 22nd at PIG at 2 pm.  Priced from $5 to $25, we don't expect them to last long!

COVID concerns certainly put a wrinkle in everything these days.  We will however open for the Walkabout on August 1, 2020 at 9 am.  This year however we are asking you to make an appointment just so we can distance easily.  We'll hope for sunny weather and I'll move the sales table outside and we can have one bubble/family group at a time explore PIG and the Sculpture Garden.   We'll book in 30 minute segments to allow plenty of time. 
Please use our Reservation form below and we will confirm by email for your preferred time. 

Visual art, is of course visual and the space in PIG is not conducive to self distancing unfortunately.  We are developing an outdoor sculpture garden and window displays for your viewing pleasure from the spacious outdoors. 

COVID-19 has affected all plans for workshops over spring break and our Spring Grand Re-opening Show.  We will work hard to bring you feature artist window displays in the next few weeks.   It should make viewing and distancing very easy.    

The Sculpture Garden will be a work in progress as there is much to do to in battling back vines and thorns.  

Any purchases would be completed via online invoicing.  You pay by credit card and when payment is confirmed the package is wrapped and delivered to your Piers Island property.  You can then store the package for 4 days before the big reveal.  Excess packaging can be picked up if requested.   Any garden sculpture pieces could be immediately displayed.  No need for indoor quarantine.  

Changes to these procedures would be made if we contracted the COVID-19 virus.    We'll announce the launch as soon as we're ready, but in the meantime - we best get back to bush whacking!

Stay safe and wash your hands.

It seems that PIG's can fly! 

We welcomed Islanders to our 3rd Annual Group Show at Piers Island Gallery on Friday August 31st, 2019 for a celebration of the art and artists of Piers.   Each year it seems one new artist joins PIG and we now have 12 artists in the "sty" although we may not have all their work all the time.  Some are more prolific than others.  
The Group works will remain on exhibit until September 29th.  
PIG's hours will be rather random in September but always feel free to call for a viewing.

We are delighted to be featuring the newest works from Lone Gardner, which this year include not only her vibrant acrylics on canvas, but two lovely watercolours with an East coast theme.   Please contact the gallery for more information on any of these paintings, just waiting to grace the walls of your home.  

It's been a long cold winter, but I'm sweeping out the PIGSTY and will be ready to reopen PIG for the season on April 13th - from 2 to 4 pm.  In celebration of spring, come share some pink bubbles and enjoy the work of your fellow Piers Island Artists.   Hope to see you there! 

 After a delayed opening...PIG opened the doors again on Thursday December 6th showing off the beautiful new creations of her talented artists.  Here are just a few images of pieces that are still available to fulfill wishes on your Christmas list.  We'll have some new kelp weavings in from Grant Warrington next weekend...your last weekend before Christmas. :)
