End of the Among Friends Art Show and Sale

After a busy summer the Buckhorn Tuesday Painting Group has returned to paint at St. Matthews Church in Buckhorn from September through to the end of April.

While the Group broke for lunch the members of the Buckhorn Artists' Group held a meeting about the dates for their shows for next year.


















They decided that after 26 years they were no longer going to hold their spring show Among Friends over the Victoria Day Weekend.

Discussion then continued on to the Shades of Summer Show and Sale. The dates are to be changed and by next month they should decide the length of the show and the dates they on which they are going to be held.

I will post the updated information as it become available.

Shades of Summer Art Show and Sale

Today we opened early to accommodate the people who also came out for the annual yard sale held by Buckhorn Community Care in the front parking lot of St. Matthews Church.


















Although it remained cool throughout the day it started off warmer 54F (12C) than yesterday in the morning but the temperature did not rise as much remaining a constant 56F (13C) throughout the afternoon with a steady rainfall until closing time.

The one nice thing about the rain and cooler temperatures was that the attendance was up considerably and we had a steady stream of people coming through the show all day.

Nine paintings were sold by Diane Collins, Heather Grant, Penny Little and Susan Sydney. Pottery was sold by JoAnne Connell Northey and small items were purchased from Diane Collins, JoAnne Connell Northey, Pat Harvey, Barbara McGregor and Bonny Windover.

We hope you will be able to come out and visit the show over the next two days before it closes.

The hours for our show are:
16 Aug 14 - 10:00am - 5:00pm
17 Aug 14 - 12:30pm - 4:00pm
