ABOUT US
Hi! I'm Jenna. I launched Beheld in December 2023 because I saw a gap: the art marketed for kids' spaces is mostly mass-produced and disposable, meant to be swapped out every few years. I wanted to offer something better—original, thoughtful pieces by Canadian artists that feel personal and lasting enough to grow with a family.
A fourth-generation Torontonian, I've also lived in Halifax, Montreal, Vancouver, and Edinburgh. Now back in Toronto with my husband and three young sons, I started Beheld to support Canadian artists and help families build a collection of art they won't outgrow..
Artists
Beheld is proud to support and work with a community of Canadian Artists. These incredible Artists are painters, illustrators, photographers, and craftspeople, and their artwork makes up our collection of exclusive and unique pieces.
A supported Artist community lies at the heart of our company and remains a key investment focus as we grow and evolve. Our objective is to support the Artists that we collaborate with, by sharing a diverse and beautifully curated selection of their exclusive artwork with collectors. If you are an Artist interested in working with us, or a collector with questions about our Artist community, please get in touch at hello@beheld.ca.
Beheld x Dorset Fine Arts
Beheld is honoured to feature a revolving curation of Inuit artwork in partnership Dorset Fine Arts. Established in Toronto in 1978 as the wholesale marketing division of the West Baffin Eskimo Co-operative, the Dorset Fine Arts co-op is based in Kinngait (Cape Dorset) Nunavut and is unique among the Arctic Co-operatives for its focus on the arts and artists of the community.
The Annual Graphics Collection from Cape Dorset has been released since 1959 and the co-op also represents many acclaimed sculptors and graphic artists.
The original hand-pulled prints and drawings by Inuit artists from Kinngait Studios available on the beheld platform are sold in partnership with Dorset Fine Arts.
