Please check back, as events are (hopefully going to be) added throughout the year!
2020
18 March 2020 Here we are, just past the middle of March in what began as a fresh decade full of energy and opportunity...and we are now thick in the midst of many uncertainties, so finally I am doing my first update of 2020.
Last November, I was appointed to the Board of Directors of FUSION: The Ontario Clay & Glass Association, and in January, I took on the portfolio of Director/Chair of FUSION's annual Clay & Glass Show. I remain optimistic that it will still happen this fall, and FUSION, like so many arts organisations, is hard at work navigating this ever-changing landscape to ensure members' and supporters' needs are met while respecting the directives of our government and health officials. This also goes for Simcoe Contemporary Dances ("SCD"), for which company I am Chair of the Board of Directors and have been grateful to a part of, in this our 10th year. Stay safe, be well, keep officially informed, post a message of thanks to frontline workers, and reach out to each other in creative ways. Not only will we flatten the curve, we will smash it.
