Letter Crafting Exhibition - April 12 - 26, 2021 Another Warmland Calligrapher’s Art exhibition at PORTALS (a Cowichan Valley Arts Council exhibition space) went off without a hitch. This is the first time we were forced to coordinate all the details without meeting in person. Word was sent out via email to the membership by Diana Carwithen to submit artwork for the exhibition. Soon the requested material arrived, details were collected, and inventory recorded. Betty Locke created a beautiful poster for the show. Many fabulous pieces
that had been created for monthly Gallerias, the Scriptors group as well as other original pieces were submitted. For the first time we also set up a display of original and print art cards for sale. Diana led the charge, meeting with and being a liaison with PORTALS Charlotte Whiteley collected the data and details. Ruth Rutledge and Diana collected the artwork. Charlotte and Judy Lowood did the layout for the show to scale in preparation for hanging the show quickly and safely.
Barbara Qualley coordinated the advertising. On April 11, 2021 Debbie Craig, Diana, Ruth, Judy and Charlotte plus 3 members from PORTALS hung the show in record time. In total we hung 37 pieces of art from 15 different participants and displayed 40 cards. Seven greeting cards and four pieces of art were sold. - Charlotte Whiteley
