We asked ourselves what do you get when you give graffiti artists a different medium to work with? We got our answer through the “Outside the Wall Exhibit”. Twenty artists under the age of 21 were given a canvas and the challenge to think “outside the wall”. We are pleased to show the results in the Gallery – one of these creations will be selected and will be recreated on a legal wall.
Pushing the theme a bit further we decided to see what some of our other artists could do by thinking outside the wall. Our friends at 2Kool productions took the challenge and invited some friends to think Outside the Wall.

Access Gallery is pleased to share with the community two amazing shows .
Disability on Disability – Over the years we have assembled an amazing array of artwork by professional artists with disabilities who look at their disability through their artwork. We have decided to make this amazing collection available to loan to community art spaces, schools, galleries and other locations. Each piece comes with an artist statement and background information on the disability. What is even better in some cases we can even deliver, help hang and train your staff on disability awareness.
What’s Wrong With This Picture - Another exhibit ready to loan.
