About the Event

Celebrate the launch of two powerful exhibitions at Modern Fuel Artist-Run Centre with an evening of art, community, and conversation.


RE:MEMBER 2025: Annual Members’ Show & Sale

Our biggest fundraiser of the year, RE:MEMBER showcases the vibrant and diverse talents of Modern Fuel’s member artists. This annual exhibition features works available for purchase, with proceeds split 50/50 between the artists and Modern Fuel, directly supporting our programming. For artists, it’s a chance to exhibit, connect, and reach new audiences. For the public, it’s an invitation to discover unique local works while supporting both emerging and established creatives. RE:MEMBER will be on view in the Main Gallery from November 22nd to December 20th.


A Smile Split by the Stars

On view in the State of Flux and Window Galleries, A Smile Split by the Stars is a collaborative narration of nourbeSe philip’s poem, Meditations on the Declension of Beauty by the Girl with the Flying Cheek-bones. Working within, across and beyond colonial lexicons, the installation reads philip’s poem through, and as, different audio-visual-textual moments of revolutionary intent, wherein Black girlhood and Black femininity are, a priori, re-coding the aesthetic promises of modernity. Co-produced with Agnes Etherington Art Centre and Gallery 44 Centre for Contemporary Photography, A Smile Split by the Stars runs from November 22nd to December 20th.


Don’t miss this dynamic evening marking the opening of two compelling exhibitions. All are welcome!
