Susie Osler/Perth Studio Tour next weekend

by | Oct 8, 2013 | Uncategorized

Perth Autumn Studio
Tour coming up this weekend coming – Thanksgiving that would be!

Hope
some of you can make it out to the Tour, and to Studio 2 (Susie Osler) to
check out some of her new ceramic work. Check out her Facebook page (Susie Osler ceramics) that has some recent work in the photo gallery. She will have bowls for sale that support Empty Bowls – proceeds support local food security initiatives.
There are 3 talented guests artists this year.  Heidi Earnshaw – master furniture designer/maker from Toronto, Paulus Tijiang –
maker of colourful animated glass objects from Warkworth, and Scott
Dobson – ingenious split rail garden sculpture and fence builder.
Here is the recent press coverage from the Humm (page 7) that provides more information on the tour if you are hungry for more.
A map is downloadable from our website http://www.perthstudiotour.com
We are also have a page on Facebook
Remember to stop at the Brooke Valley School for a delicious homemade lunch, and also to take the time to stroll around FIELDWORK.  There are numerous art
installations to find in the field and the woods behind it that are
ready for discovery.  It’s a great place to let the kids run, and to
have a relaxed stroll looking at art and nature.
The studios are open 10-5 on Saturday, Sunday and Monday.

ps. please note that not all studios accept visa or debit so consider bring cheques and/or cash to make any purchases.
