Did you know... that Dr. Dafoe was a bit of an artist himself? It appears that he enjoyed doing some sketching at times, as we have a couple of his originals in our collection. And speaking of art, don't forget to come and see Carol Griese's "Painting Bold and Brave" on now until September 19!

On Saturday August 22 we welcomed guests to come and celebrate the opening of "Painting Bold and Brave", an art exhibition by Carol Griese. It was a wonderful afternoon full of art lovers and family and friends of the artist and it was fantastic to see so much support for the arts community. The show is still on display until September 19 and we are open Tuesday to Saturday from 10-5pm (but not this coming Tuesday, we will be closed for the holiday) and the gallery is always free! So pop by and check out some wicked abstract pieces!
