THE CLASSIC THEATRE MEZZANINE GALLERY
The Classic Theatre
decided in the mid-90's that it would be a good idea to have space dedicated
to the fine arts as well as the performing arts, thus creating a beautiful
venue to hold receptions, exhibitions as well as something visual for guests
to the theatre to enjoy during intermissions.
The upper gallery or mezzanine is extremely beautiful as it overlooks the lobby,
surrounded by a fine spindle railing. Burgundy carpeting and soothing wall tones
add to the ambiance to this space
Laura Landers has been the volunteer curator of the Mezzanine Gallery since 1998.
From this time onward -- the gallery walls have been filled with artwork. Ms. Landers
books exhibitions for a two month stay and the theatre is booked well into 2008.
Originally the space had been rented out to local clubs and local artists, but as time
passes by, it has become a well sought after exhibition space for more regional artists.
Their comments have been that it is one of the more beautiful spaces they have had the
pleasure of hanging in. In fact--many artists are members of the Northern Ontario Artists Association (NOAA),
the Ontario Arts
Council (OAC), and the
Canadian Society of Painters and Watercolorists Association (CSPWA).
