Striking landscapes, pet portraits, intricate glass work, wool art, and mixed media prints were all on display at St John’s recently for Art at the Church - a show and sale organised by the Lakefield Creative Arts Group. The event took place on a rainy Saturday but still drew a crowd with many browsing the art, picking up pieces for their home, or getting a gift. One buyer was even shopping for Christmas presents! A portion of every sale went to the Lakefield Community Food Bank and a donation box was available for those who wanted to make an offering. In total, the show raised $251.30 for the food bank.
You can next catch the Lakefield Creative Arts Group at the Buckhorn Festival of the Arts, which runs 18th-19th August at the Buckhorn Community Centre. The group is currently on summer break but will resume its Monday meetings in September.
