- **Event Name**: Opening Celebration: Material. After. Life.
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 27 Mar, 2026 at 06:00 pm (-06:00)
- **Event Description**: Friday, March 27
6-9 PM
Feature Gallery and Level 3 Galleria

Opening in Feature Gallery, Material. After. Life. features works by nine contemporary artists: Sonny Assu, Douglas Bentham, Wally Dion, John Latham, Joanne Lyons, Gwen MacGregor, Leanne Read, Kara Uzelman, and Jan Wade.

While their practices are diverse, what unites these artists is an interest in work with found objects and materials, to breath new life into that which had been or would be discarded. By reshaping remnants of the past, the exhibition reveals how artists give the cast-off second lives, finding the residue and spirit in remnants often assumed to be inert, and generating renewed possibilities.

The opening program and reception will take place on Level 3 of the Museum
