Nelson Art Walk

I am taking part in the Nelson Art Walk this year. I will let you know how it turns out.

"This year ArtWalk will kick off on Friday, July 5 with opening receptions at the 16 participating venues and a street party packed with artsy activities and performances in the 400-block of Baker Street.
The event starts at 6 p.m. with the Kootenay Keltie Pipe Band marching the ArtWalk route. Throughout the evening, there will be musicians playing around the route, providing ambiance for your art viewing experience."    Nelson Star newspaper

Yippee, a pipe band!

Several members of the Headwaters Art Society attended the reception of the Purcell Mountain Painters at Pynelogs last night. We very much enjoyed ourselves and were very impressed by the art on display. Get down there and check it out!

Sorry, but I just have a thing for paper dolls and western clothes.
