Blind Bay Painters Show and Sale, at Blind Bay Hall, is in its 42nd year and features local art that may be purchased directly from the artists. Show dates are July 1 from 1 to 7 p.m., and July 2 and 3 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at 2510 Blind Bay Rd. The show features a large body of new, original works in a variety of media exhibited on the main floor. On the lower level, visitors will find prints, cards, quality craft items and discounted, previously shown paintings. Admission is by donation and includes complementary refreshments. These local artists meet weekly from September to June at Blind Bay Hall. They create visual art in many mediums: watercolours, acrylics, oils, pastels, charcoal and graphite. Working in a creative atmosphere, they exchange tips and ideas, learn new techniques and receive positive feedback on works in progress. The group also ventures outdoors with their sketchbooks and easels to take advantage of the scenic areas around the lake for inspiration. For more information, contact Nancy Alison at 250-675-5375 or gnalison@telus.net.
