The South Asian Mommies of Milton is marking local artistic growth with its annual art exhibition, Kala, at the FirstOntario Arts Centre Milton. The exhibition, which runs throughout May 23, 2026, showcases a variety of paintings and mixed media works created by South Asian artists.

Through their work, the artists explore personal and collective experiences related to home, belonging, memory, and migration. The exhibition is free to the public and can be viewed during regular gallery hours at the centre, located at 1010 Main Street East in Milton.

The organization started in 2016 as a small community group founded by Diksha Pal Narayan and has since grown to include over 1,400 members.

Over the past years, the exhibition has become a staple of the local arts scene. Tammy Townsend, the Manager of Cultural Services for the Town of Milton, noted that the organization’s efforts have been vital in helping to cultivate a vibrant arts environment within the community.
