We are excited to offer our first ever Artist Retreat at Lake Country ARTHouse. In this retreat we are privileged to learn with elders and artists Barb P. Marchand and Ankaret Dean. We begin on Friday at 3pm with an exclusive tour of the Uncharted Territory Exhibition at the Lake Country Art Gallery on it’s opening day. Having been inspired by the exhibition we shall drink tea and share ideas on how we will collectively respond, in what materials and which techniques we will use, and how we will celebrate this work publicly.
On Saturday and Sunday 9-12
- We shall respond with artmaking.
- We will play and be imaginative.
Ankaret and Barb are experts at expressing their voices through art, as we shall ours in this retreat - collectively. We will surprise ourselves on this uncharted journey. We are hopeful that we will be able to share this work publicly at the ArtHouse the following week.
