FROM THE LAWRENCE HOUSE CENTRE FOR THE ARTS... Hi Members and Friends of the Lawrence House Centre for the Arts, The September exhibition at the Lawrence House will have the theme and title: The Art of Language. This exhibition is open to all members of the Lawrence House (memberships are always available and cost $20 including HST). The work must integrate language into some other artistic medium: pottery, photography, painting, textile... I have attached a photo of two pieces of pottery by Beth Turnbull Morrish (www.turningbullpottery.com) to seed your imagination. If you would like to participate in this exhibition, please reply saying how many pieces you propose to exhibit and in what media. This will be a big help for our planning. Intake will be on Sunday, August 30th, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Thanks to member Pauline Anderson for proposing this theme!
