ARTicles
Shadow Box Exhibition
For Youth Literacy – October 17 - November 14, 2009
The South Grey Bruce Youth Literacy Council has invited 50 regional artists to participate in a fundraising art show to be held at the historic storefront of 157 Garafraxa Street S. in Durham. The ARTicles show is composed of 50 six inch shadowboxes which each artist has embellished with their own flair and are donating for this event. A diverse variety of media will be represented and abundant variety demonstrated within the small frames. These precious art pieces will be sold for $100 each, greatly benefiting our volunteer tutor program.
Patrons can view the show on Fridays from 1 to 8pm and Saturdays, 9 to 5 during the four week exhibition. The opening reception will highlight the show on Saturday, October 24 from 7:30 to 9:30pm with artists present. Our marvelous curators are Susan Lindsay and Heather Murray. Special thanks to Doug Miller of Bikeface Cycling www.bikeface.com
