Creature Comforts

Inspired by animals we see every day and magical mythical creatures, this exhibition shares artworks from the Canadian Clay & Glass Gallery’s Permanent Collection that celebrate critters of all shapes and sizes. You’ll find animals hiding in designs, shaping teapots, and decorating colourful surfaces- from playful polar bears making up a pattern, to a turtle transformed into a teapot you could pour from.

Each artist shows their chosen animal in a fun and creative way, using clay and glass to bring them to life. We invite you to look closely, imagine the stories behind each creature, and discover how animals can turn ordinary objects into something surprising and special.

Exhibited Artists: Maurice Savoie, Charlie Larouche-Potvin, Joan Van Damme, Natalie Silverstein, David Eastwood, Leigh Smith, Michael Robinson, Florence Chik-Lau

On exhibit at the Main Library now until October 8, 2026.
