Remnants: An Art-Exchange Exhibition
Thu. January 15th 2026 - Sat. February 28th 2026
@ The Ministry of Casual Living Free
Thursdays: 5-8PM
Saturdays: 1-4PM January & February 2026, The Ministry of Casual Living presents: Remnants. An open-to-everyone art show where artists bring an overlooked or unfinished piece from their own creative life — a dusty sketch, a pile of shells, a half-done craft — and install it in the gallery. Once placed, artists choose another participant’s remnant to take home.
The show is an ever-evolving creative exchange: letting go of a piece that has been tucked away, and welcoming someone else’s work into your hands. It gives value and visibility to art that might otherwise go unseen, transforming forgotten fragments into shared treasures through a simple, meaningful act of gifting and appreciation.
Join us for drop-in install:
Art exchange begins & art install continues throughout gallery hours.
𖦹 Thursdays: 5-8PM
𖦹 Saturdays: 1-4PM
Until February (exact date tbd).
750 Fairfield Rd.
Free/By donation.
Remnants Rules:
𖦹 You must be the creator of your remnant. All mediums welcome.
𖦹 You may contribute as many remnants as you want, however you must only take one remnant home per day.
𖦹 You must accept that once your remnant is installed, you may never see it again.
Based on popular demand, MoCL will be hosting a Remnants Show & Tell on January 31st and we will be extending the Remnants exhibition into February!
Remnants Show-&-Tell: January 31st, 1-4PM: We invite you to bring your collaborative remnants back to MoCL on Saturday, January 31st for a show & Tell with other participating Remnants artists!
Have you finished someone’s drawing? Used someone’s remnant in your knitting project? We want to see it! And after show & tell, you have the option to re-install your remnant in our gallery! A remnant-ception of sorts.
We look forward to seeing you there!
