Dow explained that he and Ingham wanted to provide an alternative avenue for young, contemporary artists to display their work. The Mudroom sharply contrasts the more institutional galleries already in Fredericton, which tend to favour more traditional forms of art\u2014like landscapes and portraits\u2014or pose too much of a financial barrier for young artists to consider. Ingham explained that creating a gallery in her front porch\u2014where rent is free\u2014and including a small group of artists already engaged with the scene kept costs low, making the Mudroom more accessible than larger galleries. Ingham hopes that the Mudroom will serve as inspiration for other artists in the city, not just to submit their work to her gallery, but to create their own spaces for art.<\/p>\n<div
