A New Year for The Hearth of Chintsa

Hello friends and family, supporters of our lovely local art scene! The Hearth is so grateful for all that transpired over the last 300 days. Wow. Somehow we managed to walk through and out of that and we're still here. It is a testament to the spirit of art and humans that a venture like ours can survive and even thrive through an insane time like 20-20. 


We have come through with nothing but love and a growing sense of humour.  Art has not died. Art has not suffered. If anything, Art is one of the strongest elements of our culture and has stood the test of time, once again.


We are a Project Space. We are a platform for local artists. We are a hub of creativity and gatherings. We are fearless, and look on current events as an opportunity for learning and novelty.


This is an art studio, a tattoo studio, a gallery of inspiring ideas and a safe space to gather, dance, make music and share ideas to activate our imaginations and show us how to write the future. We are storytellers, and we intend to take on the task of guiding hearts and minds, now and always, to places beyond all the half-baked, fear-inducing mass mediated realities we are being sold; we accept the challenge.

A selection of new works in the gallery. For these and other works visit the Current Works page:
