An exhibition of paintings by artist Mary Harman

Vernissage Oct 9   5-7pm   Exhibition continues to Nov 14

The subject matter of these paintings are the surrounding landscape as well as the modest dwellings in the area -  tiny houses that survive in the face of a changing world. The paintings are a tribute to this place I call home, to my neighbors, to the spirits of the past that dwell in Vale Perkins.

A play by Carole Fréchette, internationally acclaimed and Governor General Award-winning playwright, performed in Montréal for the first time in English. Beatrice waits up her tower in her nearly empty room for the perfect man to arrive. John answers the call. Will the ever-longing-for-perfection eternal feminine find love? Will the mythical macho adventurer find insight and settle down? A cross between a Greek Myth and a Brothers Grimm fairy tale. Playing from Oct. 14 to November 9, Tuesdays through Saturdays at 8 PM, with matinées on Sunday at 2 PM (Mondays: DARK).

Visit Studio Sorge in Dunham during the Torunee des 20. Studio Sorge is open every weekend beginning September 27th and ending on October 19th, 2008, from 10h to 18h or by appointment.

Michael Sproule has returned again and again to western Canada because in the western plains, foothills and mountains, he has found land formations whose complex geology intrigues and inspires him. In his dramatic and colourful paintings, there is evidence of cataclysmic upheavals, of erosion and of deposition. From his paintings of the surging glacial outwash areas of the western plains and Badlands to the tranquil ebb and flow of foothills country, Michael Sproule’s interest in the geological phenomena behind the changing landscape provides the underlying structure for his work.
