GRANT AWARDED

I was awarded an ARTicipate Project Grant to exhibit my "Show of Hands" books.  The exhibit will take place in early 2013 at the Shenkman Arts Centre.  The grant is made possible through the ARTicipate Endowment Fund which is funded through gifts from private donors, local businesses, foundations and the Province of Ontario. 

The creation of the books for this exhibit is progressing beautifully.  I will post the date of the exhibit once it has been set. 

INVITATION TO EXHIBIT

CONTEMPORARY BOOK ARTS IN EASTERN ONTARIO

I have been invited to participate in a Book Arts group exhibit which will be shown at the W.D. Jordan Special Collections and Music and Art Library at Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario.  Book artists from Kingston, Peterborough and Ottawa will be included in the exhibit. 

Date of the exhibit:  March 1 to May 31, 2013. 

I'll post more information about the exhibit as it becomes available. 



A great month for good news.  I hope you can make it to one of the exhibits.  Have a great August.
