Imaginary Truths by Hawkins & Capturing the Curve by Shoebridge

Art lovers heading to West Queen West will want to stop by 30 Abell Street for a compelling double exhibition featuring local talents Kate Hawkins and Peter Shoebridge.

In *Imaginary Truths*, Toronto artist Kate Hawkins presents an intricate collection of drawings and prints. Through conceptual series like *Truth’s Journey* and *Medieval Ladies*, Hawkins investigates the slippery boundary between reality, myth, and perception. Alongside her, ceramist and sculptor Peter Shoebridge presents *Capturing the Curve*, an exploration of line and volume. Drawing on decades of pottery practice, Shoebridge uses the curve as a dynamic gesture that balances movement and quiet stillness.

Practical Info The exhibition runs from July 30 to August 16, 2026, with free admission. Located at 30 Abell Street, the venue sits right in the creative pulse of West Queen West near Queen and Dufferin.
