I thought I was going to fall into a post-show slump after the opening in Almonte, but it seems that plans have been devised to keep me from getting glum. Good plan :) Here it goes:
I will present an Artist Talk on my TEXT-ing installation on Saturday, November 13 at 2:00pm at the Mississippi Valley Textile Museum at 3 Rosamond St. E, Almonte, ON www.mvtm.ca
Museum Hours:
Tuesday through Saturday
10:00am to 4:00pm
Admission $5.00
Clothing reconstruction workshop with artist Karina Bergmans
Saturday 20 November 2010 from 1:00 to 4:00 pm
At the Ottawa Art Gallery, 2 Daly Avenue (in English with bilingual staff)
Transform Your Uniform!
How did people dress in the past? The artworks in the exhibition In Vogue can help answer that question! After discovering clothing from the 1900s to the 1970s, textile artist Karina Bergmans will show you ways to make something unique out of an ordinary t-shirt.
For ages 8 and up! $15 adults/ $8 children and students. Please inquire about discounts for members and siblings.
