Brown bag lunch, lecture, and tour runs on April 23 in Aboyne

Visit the Well­ington County Museum and Ar­chives on April 23 at noon, for a presentation and tour of the current installation, Mem­ories of my Mother, a collec­tion of Hooked Art.

Developed and first present­ed in 2006 at the Bruce County Museum and Cultural Centre, Memories, a collection of over 60 individual pieces, explores the unique and personal stories of each artist and their rela­tionship with their mothers, ex­pressed through the media of hooked art. Each entry is a creative and touching state­ment, a true labour of love.

In Aboyne on April 23 are Sybil Mercer and Gwen Beck­er, coordinators of the exhibit, from concept to fruition, will share ideas about and passion for hooked art and then guide visitors through the exhibit itself.  Bring a lunch; beverages will be provided.

Regular admission rates apply. For further information or to reserve a seat for lunch, call 519-846-0916, extension 221. The mu­seum and archives is located on County Road 18, be­tween Fergus and Elora.
