At the Shediac Art Gallery we change it up all the time to bring our customers new and exciting artwork every month.

Scroll down to see what’s coming up next!

May 2026 - Blooms

This month’s exhibition will be full of beautiful florals. Flowers have been a timeless subject for artists, making them universally relatable and a stable theme in artistic expression across history.

With vibrant colors and forms, floral themed paintings possess rich cultural symbolism tied to emotions and nature, and provide a personal connection to the natural world for viewers, enhancing mood and well-being.  With the selection of local artists preparing artwork in many genres and various mediums, this exhibit should be breathtaking!

I’m really looking forward to it! See you then.

Exhibition Runs May 1 - May 30, 2026

In conjunction with the above exhibition, the Shediac Art Gallery will also be highlighting a “Featured Artist of the month”. Known for her beautiful botanical paintings, we welcome artist Emily Baros-Rausch in showroom 3 showcasing some of her work.

June 2026 - Two Different Themes!

  1. Fishing and Nautical (in main showroom)

  2. A 6 x 6 Show (in showroom 2)

Fishing and Nautical

To help celebrate Father’s Day, this month’s exhibition will be full of boats and fishing themed art, celebrating some of dad’s hobbies. Fishing is a versatile hobby that offers benefits like stress relief and a connection with nature, we are hoping dad can find some time to unwind this summer and enjoy some time on the water.

A nice piece of nautical themed art to hang in the man cave? Why not! Our group of local artists are up to the task. This exhibit should reeling in the good vibes!

A 6 x 6 Show

Sometimes smaller sized paintings can be real gems! This will be a wonderful exhibition of a variety of styles and themes, but all in a smaller sized 6” x 6” format. This should be really fun!

I am REALLY looking forward to this month’s dual themed exhibition! See you then.

August 2026 - Two Different Themes!

  1. Acadian themed (in main showroom)

  2. A 8 x 8 Show (in showroom 2)

Acadian themed art

Acadian Day is August 15, 2026, this is a day that has been celebrated annually since 1881 commemorating Acadian culture and history. Why not celebrate the day by taking home some art that showcases the Acadian culture and heritage. Many of our local maritime artists are Acadian, so this exhibit is sure to impress!

An 8 x 8 Show

August is the 8th month of the year, so we thought it would be fun to have an exhibition with a variety of styles and themes, but all in a smaller sized 8” x 8” format. We are letting the artists have their freedom here. You will find many styles and subject matters, just in this particular size. This should be really fun!

I am REALLY looking forward to this month’s dual themed exhibition! See you then.

November 2026 - Two Different Themes!

  1. Close Encounters of an Abstract Kind! (in main showroom)

  2. ‍ ‍5 × 7 Show (many themes, all the same size - in showroom 2)

Abstract art is a genre of visual arts that moves away from realistic representation of the physical world to embrace in the language of shapes, colors, forms, and gestural marks to create meaning and evoke emotion. So why not dedicate an entire month to exhibit this art genre for all to see!

We have many local artists that express their artistic skills within the abstract genre.  Their art focuses more on the artist's inner experience, ideas and movement with art media, rather than being limited by the formal elements of the literal subject.  It gives viewers the freedom to interpret the artwork based on their own feelings and perspectives. 

This should be a very interesting exhibit that leans into the inner thoughts and emotions of the artist itself. 

Also on exhibition, an exhibition of the same sized paintings. Because after all, great things come in small canvases! We hope you enjoy this exhibition.

The Gallery will host a reception on Friday, November 6, 2026 at 5:00pm - 7:00pm where you can meet some of the artists. All are welcome

This exhibition will include a variety of styles and subject matters from our local maritime artists. The one thing they will all have in common though will be that they are all square shaped, and all the same size: 12” x 12” (30cm x 30cm). As we get ready for Christmas, a small(ish) piece of art for a loved one might be just the right thing! Come browse this exhibition in this fun size!
