The Stairwell Art Gallery/Galerie des Escaliers is on the walls along the stairs going down to the mezzanine and lower levels of the church. Many people have contributed to setting this up. It originated as an action project in Patricia Gordon's Covenant Group, other congregations were consulted, the board approved it, DRE Caroline Balderston Parry agreed to donate the space which she had been using for RE, Aurélien Guillory picked the colour ("a complicated taupe"), Helmut painted, and Helmut and Jim Lewis installed the track. Solo shows will be juried by a rotating group of three. Group shows will not be juried. The gallery will privilege those who are members and friends of the UCM, but members can share their shows with another. We are still working out the details! A Guidelines for Artists is in the works; a short version will appear in the May newsletter. Artists who exhibit works for sale in the Stairwell Art Gallery will donate 25% of the proceeds to the Unitarian Church of Montreal, with 20% to the church Operating Fund and 5% to the Art Collective, to cover expenses and workshops. Information for UCM members who wish to exhibit their work during the next church year will be available in the May newsletter. Inaugural exhibit: Photographs by Joshua Radu opening Friday, May 6, 7 to 9 pm Although technically not a member, Josh is well known to our community; he worked here as head custodian for many years. He is a professional photographer with experience exhibiting his work; his exhibit will provide a useful example for those who haven't had shows before. Josh's show will open at the First Friday Social potluck (potluck supper at 6:00 pm). All are invited to attend. His work will be on display from May through June. Joshua graduated from Dawson College in Professional Photography in 1994, and has had numerous exhibitions in Canada and abroad. For more information consult his Website.
