Focus on...The Ark Cafe

Just this week I was contacted by the new owner of The Ark Cafe & Craft Shop at Noah's Motel and Resort on the Point in Glovertown and asked if I would like to partner with them and have my artwork, art reproductions and gift items at their establishment.

The grand opening of The Ark Cafe & Craft Shop is Saturday, June 28th. There will be free Hotdogs, Cookies, Cake, and Tea/Coffee, Iced Tea/Lemonade. And art and gift items of course!

Focus on....By the Bay Craft Shop & Museum

By the Bay Craft Shop & Museum is located in Lewisporte and is one of my new venues!

From the Lewisporte website:

"By the Bay Museum is located on 235 Main Street Lewisporte beside the beautiful Notre Dame Bay. Originally constructed as a school house in 1945, the building has been a central part of the community throughout the years.

Today, By the Bay Museum is home to hundreds of local artifacts and stories of years gone by. The museum aims to tell the story of Lewisporte and surrounding area through the stories and experiences of those who have lived here.

The most unique item, 28 foot hooked rug depicting the first 100 years of the town from 1876-1976, is a great representation of the town. Much of the heritage shown in this beautiful rug is present throughout the museum. World War I and World War II, The Female Role, Fishing and Farming, Logging and Sawmills, etc. have been central in making Lewisporte what it is today.

Well stocked with beautiful jewelry, preserves, homemade crafts, art, souvenirs, quilts and much more, the By the Bay Museum and Craft Shop will not disappoint!"

While in Central Newfoundland, make sure you stop into this historic town and visit the By the Bay Craft Shop and Museum.

Focus on....Water Street Gallery

The Water Street Gallery is newly re-named and owned by the Historic Sites Association of Newfoundland and Labrador. The Gallery is located at 309 Water Street in St. John's on the second floor of the Heritage Shop.

The Gallery just opened its summer exhibition titled "Your St. John's, Our Story" and I am fortunate enough to have had 3 pieces accepted for this show. The show will remain open Tuesdays – Saturdays until August 29th.

From the Historical Sites Association website:

"The Historic Sites Association of Newfoundland and Labrador (HSA) is a volunteer, non-profit organization with a mandate to present the province’s history and heritage.
Support for the many projects of the HSA is provided by revenue generated from sales at the Heritage Shops. This retail operation also supports our mandate by presenting the Province’s culture thorough a wide variety of local art, craft, gifts, and books."
