Art In My Garden 2025
We’re looking forward to once again hosting Art In My Garden at St. Jude’s this year! It’s a beautiful way to welcome the community onto our grounds and into our building. This event is part of our growing evangelism efforts, giving more people a chance to experience who we are and what we stand for. The presence of our talented artists is a wonderful bonus, but our main goal is connection and hospitality.
We’ve heard some questions about how the event is being organized this year, so here are a few key points to clarify:
-
St. Jude’s does not pay to be included as a host garden in the official guide.
-
All artists across Oakville pay a $75 fee to participate, whether they exhibit on their own lawn or are placed at a host location.
-
St. Jude’s artists who noted their parish affiliation during registration are receiving priority placement on our church lawn, but early registration was recommended to avoid disappointment.
-
Artists exhibiting inside Victoria Hall do not pay a fee, but they should expect less foot traffic than those outdoors.
We hope to see many visitors enjoying our gardens and learning more about St. Jude’s through this event. Thank you for your support in making this a meaningful and welcoming experience for our community.
If you are a St. Jude's artist who would like to exhibit in Victoria Hall, please contact Amanda in the Church Office.
