2023 ARTIST-IN-RESIDENCE

Picture
Alison Newth
​The Prince Rupert Community Arts Council and Cassiar Cannery are excited to announce the 2023 Artist-in-Residence.

Originally from Prince Rupert, Alison Newth moved with her family to Fort St. John in the 1980s. Located in northeastern BC, Fort St. John is known for its outstanding sunsets and northern lights. Alison has shown her work steadily and her original paintings reside with collectors across Canada and the US.  Some of Alison’s achievements include the cover art for the novel Raft Baby, by Bonnie Dunlop, and a public art display in FSJ’s new festival plaza. Alison uses acrylic and oil paints to capture the spirit and vibrance of landscapes that hold special meaning–the beautiful Peace River is one of her most beloved and popular subjects. 
 
Cassiar Cannery is located at the mouth of the Skeena River, and will provide accommodation and a studio space, an unrivalled spot to celebrate and support art and artists. “Having these artists come to Cassiar Cannery brings diverse artistic expressions and experiences to our region”, says Suzo Hickey, painter and arts council member. Past Long residencies have included artists from Sackville New Brunswick, and Vancouver BC; while Northern artists hailed from Smithers, Telkwa, and Prince Rupert. From painting to graphic storytelling; to metal rain sculpture, each artist has contributed challenging and innovative art.
