OAS Gallery Exhibitions

Oakville Art Society provides several outlets for members and students to display and sell their artwork, both in-house and in Oakville. Each year, we typically exhibit at Queen Elizabeth Park Community Centre and at one of the Oakville Galleries sites. Check this page for updates, as well as the Juried Show and Student Show pages.

Get Ready for the 2026 QEPCCC Corridor Exhibition: Out of the Blue

We invite Oakville Art Society members to participate in our upcoming Corridor Exhibition at the Queen Elizabeth Park Community & Cultural Centre (QEPCCC), located at 2302 Bridge Road, Oakville.

This season’s theme, “Out of the Blue,” invites artists to explore the colour blue as the dominant element in their work—whether through mood, symbolism, atmosphere, or abstraction. From calm and introspective to bold and unexpected, we encourage you to interpret the theme in your own unique way.

This is a non-juried exhibition, open to all members in good standing. 

Important Dates:

  • Submission Period: April 2nd – April 17th, 2026
  • Artwork Drop-off & Install: May 12, 2026 (time details to follow)
  • Artwork Pick-up & Dismantle: September 1, 2026 (time details to follow)

Submission Guidelines:

Theme: Artwork must align with the theme Out of the Blue, with blue as the predominant colour.
