Emerging Artist Program
Featuring Nova Scotia's Emerging Artists in New Glasgow
Emerging Artist Program
MacGillivray Law is partnering with Studio 116 in New Glasgow to give emerging Nova Scotia artists a space to share their work, without the cost of commission. Every artist selected for this program keeps 100% of their sales. No fees. No cuts. Just a chance to be seen, supported, and celebrated in one of Pictou County’s newest creative spaces.
Studio 116 is a newly opened gallery located at 116 Provost Street, New Glasgow, Nova Scotia . The gallery is dedicated to showcasing contemporary art from local artists, giving Nova Scotia’s creative community a fresh venue to exhibit and grow. We’re honoured to support its mission from the very beginning.
