On Friday July 5th, we greet Cat Thom, Artist and Storyteller from 6-8pm with SPIRITS OF THE BACKYARD. Who are the spirits of your backyard? Cat Thom celebrates the life that makes up her own natural world with richly layered and colourful collages of birds, insects, flowers and other plants. Spirits Of The Backyard explores the nature that many of us live most closely with. Our backyards are our closest gateways to the cycles of the natural world, from bird and insect migrations to the budding, blossoming, and fruiting of flowers, and they have many stories to tell. A smalltime urban farmer, she currently raises chickens, ducks, and bees in Victoria.
August features Tamas Zalatnai and Colleen Clancy PAPER and ANVIL; September we greet Amy Louise with OF NATURE and in December we celebrate LIVING PROOF, 2nd Annual Life Drawing Sketches Exhibit.
