CALLING ALL ARTISTS!
The University of Lethbridge Faculty of Fine Arts and Art Gallery invite artists of all disciplines to come and create while being inspired at the U of L Coutts Centre for Western Canadian Heritage near Nanton, AB. We are hosting 4 ‘open house’ days for artists to create while enjoying the use of the property together with other artists, friends and family.
You and yours are welcome to attend any or all of these dates and see this beautiful place as summer progresses and the beautiful garden blooms and grows:
Sunday, June 21, 2015 – Longest day of the year – 10 am – 5 pm
Sunday, July 26, 2015 – Coutts Centre Arts Festival – 10 am – 5 pm
Sunday, August 16, 2015 – Harvest time – 10 am – 5 pm
The Centre is open between 10 am and 5 pm on all days – including buildings and washrooms. You can arrive earlier and stay later, but the facilities will not be available. For the Sundays in May, June and August, the Coutts Centre is open for En Plein Air artists and friends to share Jim Coutt’s vision – whatever the weather. The Art Gallery will host water, coffee and tea – but you’ll need to bring your own picnic lunch.
At the Coutts Centre Arts Festival on July 26, you can enjoy live music and Shakespeare in the Garden, or relax and create in the gardens and out-buildings. A food vendor is coming with a wide range of refreshments and diverse foods! Or, you can bring your own picnic lunch.
There will be a Fall, 2015 exhibition, at the Dr. Foster James Penny Building in downtown Lethbridge, featuring artwork, sculpture and photography as created and submitted by participating artists.
