The Georgian Bay Invitational Art Show 2025
The 2025 Georgian Bay Invitational Art Show
Every summer Trestle Brewing Company hosts an invitational art exhibit featuring local artist called The Georgian Bay Invitational Art Show. At Trestle, we think of our walls as public art space. We do not charge a hanging fee or a commission on sales. All sales go directly to the artist and our role is to connect art buyers with artists. Every month throughout the year our displays change and we provide opportunities to new artists and artist groups like the Parry Sound Photography Club.
As a reminder, the images below do not accurately represent the fantastic colours, composition, and size of the actual artwork. It is best to visit the brewery in person for appreciation of these works.
Please contact the artist to arrange for any purchase of artwork. Please note that the art must remain in place for the period of the show.
Show - June 29 - September 28, 2025
