Patricia Aldridge

Gallerist and artist

I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Ryerson University.

I volunteered for just over a year to give art classes
to the women incarcerated in the Central East
Detention Center. Bringing art to these women
was one of the most meaningful things I have
ever done for myself.

I have been a creative person all my life.
My darkest times were when I had no one to share
being creative with. I believe we must help good
people to become better through creation
- that is how we know who we really are.
