Members of the public are being asked to rank which features will be most important for them, which will help TransLink advance BRT planning.

To celebrate its 50th anniversary, the Surrey Art Gallery is hosting a series of art parties to showcase their winter exhibits. The first of which is the Forming Futures Art Party on January 25th featuring the work of Rajni Perera.

Surrey Art Gallery 50th Anniversary

• Date: January 25, 2025 from 6:00pm to 9:00pm
• Location: Surrey Art Gallery (13750 88 Ave, Surrey)
• Tickets: Free!

Opening this night is Rajni Perera: Futures. Experimenting with mediums as varied as painting, sculpture, and photography, Toronto-based artist Rajni Perera expresses her vision of imagined futures in which mutated subjects adapt to exist in dystopian realms through strength and resilience.

Perera draws deeply on the artistic traditions of Sri Lanka, her childhood home. Indian miniature painting, medieval armour, South Asian textiles, and science fiction also factor into her body of work that spans feminist and diasporic narratives while contemplating survival in an environmentally degraded future.
