First Encounter
An Exhibition of Small Works (With Children In Mind)
November 30 – December 23, 2006
Kids Art Party:
Saturday, December 9, 2-4 pm
Diane Farris Gallery is delighted to
present First Encounter, a group show of artworks chosen
and created for young children and the young at heart!
We believe that the initial early
childhood encounters with the arts become life-long memories
that prompt love for the arts, hobbies, careers, and new ways
of seeing, interpreting and questioning the world around us
.
Children are our “Guests of Honour”
at this exhibition. It has been created with them in mind
and will be hung at a lower level for their enjoyment. This
fun, salon style show is comprised of a large number of pieces
that are certain to lift your spirits and perhaps provide
you with a first gift of art for a little one in your life!
On Saturday December 9th, the Diane Farris Gallery will host
a Kids Art Party where children are invited to create their
own small masterpieces with materials we supply – including
the terrific new Chihuly
Art Kits. Please drop in between 2 and 4 pm for a delightful
afternoon and take home the work of your very own prodigy.
Artists will be on hand to help!!! Cookies
& refreshments will be served!
Featuring: Alex Abdilla, Shannon Belkin, Roberta Bondar, David
