The Michael Wright Art Gallery and Outlet Gallery present Imaginings V: A Collection of Port Coquitlam Student Artwork by Terry Fox and École Riverside Secondary Schools. Ideas and possibilities are the result of imagination. The mental work of the imagination is fundamental to creating, making, and learning. This act elevates thoughts from the mundane to the fantastic. The Imaginings V Exhibition highlights the breadth, depth and possibilities of ideas made by local students of Terry Fox and Riverside Secondary Schools.

This year’s exhibition features some artworks inspired by the United Nations Global Goal #14: Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources
