Tiny Takeover: Kid Critics


5dc2722965f41cc30cb796b9 5dc26e60f6793919de8193bb tiny critics 1024x1024

We’ve invited over our neighbours at A Tiny Lab for Early Learning to collaborate with us on a very exciting exhibition! Curated by CFAT Programming Director, Tori Fleming, this exhibition will feature work by Andrew Coll and Craig Lang, Emily Hamel, Emily Lawrence and Kylie Dyment, April White and William Wegman. This program was made possible by the 4Cs foundation.

Over the past few weeks the students at A Tiny Lab, ages 3 – 5, have dropped by the CFAT offices to view and critique the featured works. Their critiques will be presented in a catalogue available at the exhibition.

Here are some early reviews we received from our critics after asking them “did you like this show?”

“I like to feed make up to my dog.”
– Madeline

“Why is the floor so dirty?”
– Rendall

“I would like to see a painting.”
– Arlo

Join us for opening reception on Saturday, August 11th at 3pm. We encourage you to bring any of the kids in your life!

August 14th – 31st, 2018
