“This is a show of art based around urban sprawl,” says Anah Shabbar, a 20-year-old artist from St. Catharines, Ontario and one of seven area artists who will be showcasing their work at a downtown business in the city this Saturday, March 5.

The work on display speaks to themes that touch, profoundly, on protecting our environment and the quality of lives we live in our communities, the artist said.
So if you are interested in this unique display of work from young artists in our community, here is a little information on when and where you can view it below.
A group of local St. Catharines artists will be hosting an art show in the unlikeliest of places — a downtown hair salon.
The group show, Urban Sprawl, will take place at Bang On Hair Salon located at 142 St. Paul St. in downtown St. Catharines. It will feature a collection of works by young artists from or based out of the city.
The artists involved in the show work in a number of different disciplines. The exhibit is held in a groovy little salon downtown St. Catharines, where works featured include paintings, photographs and sculptures, to name a few.
