We are coming to the end of 2016. We started the year with a visit and talk given by James Mishibinijima. It was an honour to have James come to speak at the gallery and give a talk about his art and the Grandfather Teachings.
Here we are now at the end of December. We would like to take this moment to thank all of the artists who brought their work to the gallery and participated in shows. It has been a delight to be surrounded by work done by talented, local artists. (We added some pieces to our own collection at home – occupational hazard). Very special thanks, as well, to those who came in to the gallery and took the time to see what we had, and to enjoy events throughout the year!
We are still open for your last minute holiday needs with great gifts and stocking stuffer ideas. We have unique items that you won’t find elsewhere. We’ll help you complete that list without the line-ups and we have lots of free parking.
Holiday Hours:
Wed – Fri Dec 23rd 10-5 pm.
Saturday, December 24th 10-3pm. We’ll have the coffee pot brewing to help with that last minute inspiration.
Closed on Christmas Day and Boxing Day. We will be closed Tuesday Dec. 27 – Friday Dec. 30 to get a coat of paint on the walls. We will start 2017 fresh and bright.
See you on Dec 31st from 10-3pm.
