The St. Marys Station Gallery welcomes you to the first Art Olympics, where we make art a

sport of sorts. Historically speaking, between 1915-1952, art was a legitimate category within the

Olympics with at least 151 medals awarded in that timeframe. Painting, sculpture, architecture,

literature and music were judged alongside traditional sporting competitions.

Coinciding with the Winter Olympic Games in Milan, Italy, the St. Marys Station Gallery

presents a diverse range of artworks by locals who have taken part in our art education

program throughout 2025. While the artworks presented do not depict athletic achievements,

the public is invited to “judge” the pieces. People are encouraged to vote on their favourite

pieces that fall into a few categories: drawing by a child, acrylic painting, watercolour (with

the sub-categories of: landscape, still life, etc.).

 

Please join us at the St. Marys Station Gallery to cast your vote in person.
