Setting up the 27th Annual Shades of Summer Art Show


Today we set up the 27th Annual Shades of Summer Art Show at St. Matthew's Church in Buckhorn, Ontario.

While we were waiting for the main grids to arrive, we set up all the tables along the window wall, the ones at the front, the large table at the back of the room and the one in front of the bookcases.

Each table was then covered with long white tablecloths, followed with smaller green tablecloths to create a pleasing contrast from the stark white.

Next we brought in the short grids that I store for the front display tables.



















Now that the main grids had arrived they were set up down the centre of the hall in a zig zag pattern that was carefully measured so each panel grouping was the same distance.

Then the narrower panels were set to each side of the main panels to provide stability so they wold not fall down if they were bumped into by someone not paying attention.

Once the grid set up was completed and each artist's name was put in their space we were allowed to bring in our paintings and start hanging our work in our space.



















Each artist had to be sure that their panels filled and all of their exhibits where completed tonight as the show opens tomorrow morning at 10:00 a.m.

Then each artist had to make sure the list of their paintings was at the front table for the people who would look after sales in the morning.

The hours for our show are:
17 Aug 17 - 10:00am - 4:00pm
18 Aug 17 - 10:00am - 4:00pm
19 Aug 17 - 10:00am - 4:00pm
20 Aug 17 - 12:30pm - 4:00pm


















We look forward to seeing some of you at our show during the next four days.
