The Montreal art milieu of 1920 was conservative in nature and the Beaver Hall Group was formed, in part, in response to that local art scene.
Through the intermediary of Group of Seven member A.Y. Jackson, the Beaver Hall Group was affiliated with this movement.
The Montreal Group, however, was short-lived (circa 1920-1922) and virtually disappeared from Canadian art historical texts until the late 1950s when it began to be presented as having consisted primarily of women artists.

 FFWD Weekly - October 26th, 2000
It was known as the Beaver Hall Group because its members shared studio space in a house located at 305 Beaver Hall Hill.
Compared to the more monumental canvasses of the Group of Seven, featuring a remote and unpopulated wilderness, the paintings of the Beaver Hall women are much more modest in scale and tend to humanize the land, usually the Quebec countryside, with clear evidence of human labour and habitation.
Heward’s work was the most daring and original of the group – crisply articulated, powerful representations of women and children that expressed the complex and often ambivalent roles of women in society.

Through the author's painstaking research, we learn about the commitment of the group to painting and to encouraging each other's careers, as well as how determined they were to succeed in a largely unwelcoming male domain.

 Anne Savage - Legacy   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
As an artist, she was part of the vital Canadian art movements of the 1930's and 1940's, closely linked to the landscape painters called The Group of Seven and the Northern Symbolist landscape tradition.
A founding member of the Beaver Hall Group and the Canadian Group of Painters, she was a prominent and regular contributor to major exhibitions of Canadian art both at home and abroad.
Anne Savage's paintings derive from the Canadian scene of her time, from her association with the Group of Seven, from her membership in the Beaver Hall Hill Group, but more than anything, they are a result of her love and sensitivity - her love of the landscape and her sensitivity to colour and rhythm.

The Beaver Hall Group was an association of Quebec artists which officially began its existence in 1920.
Remarkably, unlike its Ontario counterpart, the Group of Seven, the Beaver Hall Group had a large contingent of female artists, and though the Group prided itself on its eschewal of any bias-related to class, gender, or artistic preference-it seems to have been especially hospitable to women and proved an excellent springboard for their careers.
The Beaver Hall elite begun their education there, but were later encouraged to break free of conventional ideas concerning both art and the role of women in society and the professions.
