Artist Reception: March 7th 1-3pm 

Scugog Arts presents: ‘Outside of the Lines’ an art exhibition by Monica Dear 

March 7th – March 29th , 2026 

268 Queen St, Port Perry, ON L9L 1B8 

In this collection of bold and expressive drawings, Monica Dear captures the spirit of her subjects through energetic, seemingly chaotic lines and scribbles. Working primarily with gel pen and coloured pencil, she has developed a distinctive visual language that balances structure and colour with a deliberate touch of disorder. The result is work that feels alive; gestural and intuitive, offering just enough information to invite the viewer in. 

All are welcome! 

Beth Adams got hooked on genealogy when her Aunt Charlotte took her and her mother to visit the Betts House on Westney Road in Pickering. The house was fantastic - but the family bible her cousin Myra showed her was the clincher! Inside that bible was a typewritten transcript of the family pages from an even older bible.

Follow along with Beth's journey through her family's past, and discover their connection to Whitby and the Lynde family.
