Free Self Expression 

On Bellows Falls 3rd Fridays 

Every month from 5-8pm

Canal Street Art Gallery presents: Free Self Expression on Bellows Falls 3rd Fridays, every month from 5 to 8pm. Beginning on December 20th, the public is invited to celebrate open and accepting community by sharing performance, music, reading, speaking, dancing, and take-home art and writing. Everyone is welcome to join in, to add what they will, when they will, throughout the evening of unconditional and free-spirited creative revelry. All gallery events are free and open to the public, for wheelchair accessibility call 802-289-0104. 


Since 2017, Canal Street Art Gallery’s mission has been to provide an open space where all creative voices may be heard. Director Mike Noyes believes that as a cultural institution, the gallery has a responsibility to its community. “Art galleries have a unique place in modern culture. They can be gathering places, safe havens. Places where being different and standing out can be welcomed and encouraged. New ideas as well as old favorites can be given a voice, and the audience can become participators by taking it, leaving it, or adding to it. Free Self Expression on Bellows Falls 3rd Fridays celebrates creativity and critical thinking in everyday life, with every person throughout every culture. Even under the most dire of circumstances, the arts endure. Now find your self expression and use it freely.” 


The guidelines for Free Self Expression on Bellows Falls 3rd Fridays are “carry in, carry out” and “please respect your fellow humans”. Those wishing to share performance, music, reading or speaking are asked to take turns. Those who are offering take home art and writing are asked to add their creations to the provided shelves and pedestals. Canal Street Art Gallery also holds receptions on 3rd Fridays for artists who are opening solo shows.
