Great time, great day at the Antigonish Highland Games Clan Tent

Nancy Stevens at work on a portrait

Last Sunday July 11 the GAPACC artists were demonstrating :

Abbey Allen in paintings, Helen Jones in wood carving, Nancy Stevens in people drawing, Felicity Redgrave in animal drawing, Bruce Campbell in canvas painting, Larche artists in papermaking, Michel de Noncourt in sculpture, Greg Melchin and his brother in a drumming workshop and Ann Comozzi in silk painting.

This is the first time ever that GAPACC artists have been formally invited to participate actively at an Highland Games cultural event. The invitation was brought to GAPACC by Ann Marie MacKenzie Secretary of the Games.

Thank you to the artists who took time to not only be present but to engage in demonstrating and asking participation from the visitors.

Art reaching the community at the ground level as our GAPACC mandate.

Thank you specially to Tila Kellman who coordinated this GAPACC  Exhibition Committee event. Let’s all be back next year !
