This year it is the Buckhorn Artists' Group exhibiting there, instead of the artists from the Kawartha Artists' Gallery and Studio as none of the members from the Gallery were willing to organize and run the show.
We arrived at the Evinrude Centre in the morning and it didn't take very long to unload and set up the grids.
Once everything was securely in place the artists picked out where they wanted to hang their paintings. Some of the artists had larger paintings than others and used an entire set of panels, while others had smaller pieces and shared the panels.
Once we everything was hung we decided we needed to bring in some lights. The sitters for tonight's 5-9 p.m. shift brought them in together with light bars and extension cordss.
It didn't take long to hang the lights on the panels, turn them on and get them positioned to enhance the look of the paintings.
It wasn't long before people started to arrive to look at the various displays throughout the building and come into the conference room to have something to eat and view our show.
Many of the people we spoke with came out tonight in the rain and hoped to return home before the temperature dropped and changed to freezing rain for the overnight.
For those of us who were sitting tonight we were fortunate that the freezing rain held off until we made it safely home.
Three paintings were sold by Diane Collins and Susan Sydney.
