Inviting applications from professional artists, artist-led multidisciplinary teams, and creative makers working in diverse artistic mediums to create two permanent sculptural works for the Sandra Dobbin Memorial Garden: an Entrance Gate and a Portal.
The garden is designed to be a secluded refuge immersed in nature, offering respite and fostering community connection through cultural programming, grief work, and quiet contemplation.

Our Local Holiday Gift Guide is one of our most popular offerings. The Guide is hosted on our website and features locally made gifts available for purchase from 60 - 90 artists and creators each year.
The Guide is also used year-round (like by members of the business community who reach for ideas for local swag, thank you gifts, and other local items).

Mysa Smart Thermostats is looking to collaborate with a local Newfoundland and Labrador artist whose work embodies our province’s flora, fauna, and iconic landmarks.
Your artwork will be added to 3D renderings of realistic home interiors that we’ll use to promote energy saving programs with.
Our goal is to add a touch of realism, charm, and coziness to our campaigns, and since Mysa is proudly based in St. John’s, we’re looking for artwork that feels unmistakably Newfoundland.
