DIDSBURY ART SHOW & SALE - APRIL 13 & 14, 2019 The Mountain View Arts Society is pleased to host the 8th Annual Art Show & Sale at the Didsbury Art, Travel & Trade Expo in Didsbury. Hosted by the Chamber of Commerce, this is the largest trade show between Airdrie and Red Deer in Central Alberta. Artists joined over 120 exhibitors on three ice surfaces and the community hall with over 4,000 people attending each year. Artists can rest assured many people saw their work! This is another fabulous show featuring so many wonderful local Canadian artists! PEOPLE'S CHOICE AWARD When visitors enter our gallery, they are greeted by volunteers and artists, and given a "People's Choice" ballot. Walked around the exhibits, enjoy the beautiful pieces of art, then vote for your favourite. The winner will be announced at the end of the show on Sunday afternoon. 2018's People's Choice was "Autumn Calls", a Canvas Giclee of an original acrylic (pictured right). Artist, Gayle Kohut is from Didsbury and is a perennial favourite. ARTISTS' WINDOW We offer a comfortable space for an "Artist's Window". This popular area sheds light on the artistic process, how artists make art. Each artist has an opportunity to schedule a time when the public can watch them practice their craft, opening a window into the lives of artists as they go about their work. Artists who participated in 2018 included Donna Brink, Michelle Houston, Christina Ekman, Bill Anthony, Chris Carlson, Delree Dumont, Gayle Kohut, Robin Rohl, Ashley Leggette, and Melany Sealy. We will be sending out our Call to Artists for the 2019 Show before the end of the year. Please check back. QUESTIONS? If you have any questions, please contact Merrilee Anthony at 403-512-9888.
