FLESHERTON FLURRIES- SATURDAY DEC. 2, 2006

The village of Flesherton will be a flurry of activity this December 2nd as the creative business owners plan to stay open for a special 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. celebration of the village.

The two village art spaces: Flesherton Art Gallery and Left Side Gallery are both hosting openings during the Flurries, and artist Val McMurray's floral paintings will return to the corner in Ecowood.

"We've certainly got enough culture for anyone's taste," says Flesherton Art Gallery owner David Turner who will host a show of new works by Owen Sound painter Lorne Wagman. The Left Side Gallery will also feature the annual variety show (The Best of 2006) with Estelle Bauduin, Peter Becket, Michael Warren-Darley, Anna Maria Dickinson, Ken Dunn, Steve Eby, Kate Esplen, Anna Green, George Maes, Ruth Mittleholtz, Jenny Reid, Jennifer Stenberg, and more.

Both Anna and Ken will also have their work displayed at Donabie's restaurant. In addition, Anna will have work at Ann Wylie-Toal's Spirit Space http://www.awtdesigns.com

A great number of stores, galleries, and eateries are each donating delightful prizes and the throng will gather at Donabie’s restaurant at about 9:15 for an exciting draw followed by music and dancing.

Hope to see you there!

THANKS FOR A GREAT SEASON!

A big thank you to everyone who attended our second season of shows at Gypsy Creek this past summer. Both "Art By The Falls" and "The Autumn Leaves Studio Tour " were very successful, and will be back next year. In fact, we are contemplating adding more "Art By The Falls" weekends next year. The first has been tentatively scheduled for the May 24th Holiday Weekend.

Thanks also to those who supported our shows at other galleries, including Left Side, Riversong, and the Durham Art Gallery. Your support is much appreciated!

Although Gypsy Creek is now closed for the season, a number of shows and exhibitions at other galleries, as well as gift shops and restaurants are planned over the winter months.
