    Beaver Hall Group

    The Beaver Hall Group (also known as the Beaver Hall Hill Group) was a group of artists (both male and female) who shared studio space at 305 Beaver Hall Hill in Montreal. A.Y. Jackson was the first president. The group, which had no manifesto, began exhibiting their works together in 1920. There is some disagreement about how long the group lasted. Most scholars agree that it disbanded in 1922 due to financial problems. Edwin Holgate described the Beaver Hall Group as a loose association of artists who had similar ideas and little money. Artists associated with the Beaver Hall Group focused mainly on figurative paintings. It was also one of the first artist groups in which women played key roles.
