Genesis Centre

New artwork is now on display through the Northeast Mini Galleries at Genesis Centre.

We are proud to feature Calgary-based multidisciplinary artist Saloni Sharma and her exhibition, Reimagined Traditions.

Using handmade paper pulp plates as her canvas, Saloni blends traditional Indian folk-art influences with contemporary techniques, creating vibrant works that explore cultural memory, sustainability, and craftsmanship.

Visitors are invited to take a moment during their next visit to Genesis Centre to experience the exhibition up close and learn more about the stories, traditions, and creativity behind each piece.
