The Art Gallery of Burlington, the free public gallery at 1333 Lakeshore Rd., is looking for a new artistic director and curator: the person who leads its artistic program and shapes the exhibitions visitors see.
The opening comes as Suzanne Carte leaves in December to become director and curator of the Joan and Martin Goldfarb Gallery at York University. The Lakeshore Road gallery credits her with advancing the Artist Material Fund, which she founded in 2014 and which redistributes usable materials free of charge.

In announcing the search, it says it wants someone who brings "curatorial depth, sound judgement and a commitment to artists" to a mid-sized public gallery with a distinctive ceramics collection.
Its current program includes the exhibition Wiigwasitig / waskway / Honouring the Birch Tree, which features wearable art, bark biting, film and photography by Anishinaabe and nêhiyawak artists: Pat Bruderer (Halfmoon Woman), Helen Pelletier, Amber Sandy, Seth Arcand and the late Angelique Merasty.
