Lin Hylton
By the Shore
May 5 - 30, 2026
In this series By The Shore, Hylton paints from a childhood steeped in the rhythms of the Acadian coast.
A vivid dreamscape unfolds across her work–land, sea, and sky meet, not as fixed boundaries–but as fluid shifting relationships. Luminous blues stretch and breathe like open water while soft bands of sky in pinks and lavenders offer a moment of stillness and calm.
Throughout the paintings, small, simplified houses are anchors of human presence within the landscape. They offer a sense of warmth and belonging, a reminder that even within the vast landscape there is shelter, connection and stories: stories of cousins, laughter and rituals by the sea.

MAIN GALLERY
Art$ Funding
Christopher Campbell Gardiner, Glen Johnson, Milton Lim & Patrick Blenkarn
May 8 - July 4, 2026
Opening Reception: Friday, May 8, 5 - 8 PM
Art$ Funding at the Art Gallery of Regina is a playful yet piercing exhibition that exposes the real-world frustrations, emotional toll, and hidden labor behind the pursuit of arts funding in Canada. Through satirical, witty, and thought-provoking works, artists and collectives lay bare the bureaucratic hoops, elusive dollars, and misunderstood value of creative work, inviting visitors to see that art is far from a frivolous pastime.
The exhibition features a diverse range of works, including Silton, Saskatchewan-based artist Christopher Campbell Gardiner, who transforms failed grant applications and other unseen administrative and emotional artifacts into art by sealing them in intricate embroidery and layers of paint. Gardiner’s process is both an act of healing and a powerful statement about the struggles artists face behind the scenes. Interactive installations invite visitors to enter the fray themselves: Glen Johnson’s Artistic Licence Bureau offers a tongue-in-cheek exploration of artistic validation and identity, while Patrick Blenkarn and Milton Lim’s high-stakes card game, culturecapital, set in a pulsating environment of lights and sound, lets gallery-goers experience the luck, chance, and strategy involved in arts funding.
Art$ Funding also raises timely questions about the future of impartial, arms-length arts support in Canada. As governments increasingly underfund arts councils and boards, the exhibition champions the need to protect these essential structures to ensure freedom of expression and support for challenging art.

Of Monsters & Minds
May 5 - 30, 2026
Antique, story–rich objects are repurposed as surfaces with underlying narratives of the classic monster archetype, the feared presence that holds a misunderstood and unspoken interior. These images reflect the human psyche – at times catastrophic and fear mongering, and at others inquisitive, curious, self-determined, and resilient.
