Mary Anne Molcan (she/her) was born in Kristapinanihk, which in Cree translates to ‘Great Meeting Place’. Located along the shores of the North Saskatchewan River, it was a place of social gatherings for ceremony and trade.

When she is not welcoming people to the gallery,  she is a local artist with a current focus in two-dimensional media: printmaking, drawing, and painting. She holds a BA in Visual Arts with a minor in Psychology from Vancouver Island University. Her practice explores the intersection between the natural world and human values.

She also loves to write and has published a story called ‘The Strength of Vulnerability’ in Chicken Soup for the Soul.
