CRAFTERNOONS 2012

One of my all time favourite things about summer – CRAFTERNOONS! And they’re back for kids 3-9yrs. A few spots remain in all of our sessions EXCEPT for July 16-20 which is FULL. Call today to register!

Sweet Sarah

As you might already know, our most wonderful Sarah Jane Holtom is moving away. We had such a wonderful Saturday watching her make portraits all afternoon long. You should see her most amazing portrait show at the Black and Yellow Gallery that runs to the end of this month; you might even see a familiar face or two!

Sarah is heading up north to the Yukon for an artist residency and you can follow her adventures here.  We’re also collecting some NEW UNUSED art supplies to send up north for the budding artists of Inuvik. More info here- and please just NEW or gently used supplies! Space is limited, so kindly call us before dropping off your donations.

Before she goes, Sarah’s also installed a beautiful collection of drawings at Collage Collage. Come see 100 portraits of Penny through to mid June.

We’re gonna miss you Sarah! What a shining light you’ve been at the shop. Hurry back now.

Mother’s Day at Collage Collage

We have two amazing things happening at the store on May 12th! Come in and make a scrapbook for mom with Wendy Oakman books (3-5pm), or book a portrait session with Sarah Holtom! $30/portrait (2-5pm)

This is special day in the store, as our most amazing Sarah Holtom is moving away, and this weekend will be her last shift in the store before she goes. Sarah is an incredibly talented portrait artist, and we’re thrilled to be able to offer the chance for a portrait session with her, especially on the heels of her sell out show at Black and Yellow gallery this month. Portraits sessions are for one person at $30/15minute session for a portrait made in pencil crayons. Book early to secure a spot!
