a guest artist in August

A truly unique event
called Fare On 4 is happen-
ing in Blyth this Sunday.
Starting at 4:30 p.m., Main
Street in Blyth, or Hwy #4,
will be packed with people
as they enjoy a seasonal
feast hosted by the Blyth
Arts & Cultural Initiative
14/19 Inc.
The purpose of the Blyth
Arts & Cultural Initiative
14/19 Inc. is to promote a
mix of arts, culture, com-
merce and education in
order to create a dynamic
and versatile community.
The initiative was created
in response to various
businesses leaving the
area, a lack of nearby
employment opportunities
and the small number of
young people who reside
here. The hope is that the
project will bring busi-
nesses, employment and
young people back to the
community.
The project was given
the name, 14/19, because
organizers have given
themselves five years -
from 2014 to 2019 - to raise
the $6 million needed to
fund their ideas. 2014 also
marks the 40th anniversary
of the Blyth Festival and
2019 will mark the 100th
anniversary of the Blyth
Memorial Community
Hall.
As Peter Smith, the pro-
ject director, says, "Almost
100 years ago, a group of
people had an idea and
that idea became Blyth
Community Hall. Almost
40 years ago, a group of
people had an idea, that
idea became the Blyth Fes-
tival. 14/19 is another
group for people with an
idea - Create a cultural hub
in Blyth that reaches
county wide."
As Karen Stewart, the
project administrator, says,
both the festival and the
hall were created as a
result of a "creative
impulse," and this is some-
thing that organizers
behind the project want to
keep going more than
anything.
Guests at the event on
Sunday will be served a
multi -course dinner pre-
pared by Chef Jason Rut-
ledge of the Blyth Inn and
Chef Peter Gusso of Part II
Bistro in Blyth. In particu-
lar, the dinner will feature
the food of Huron County.
Musicians, singers and vis-
ual artists will also be in
attendance.

Multi media artist and art
educator, Devon McCallum
will lead tours of the Co-op
Gallery guiding guests to
see the style, variety of
media used [i.e. acrylic. oil,
photography, wood] line
and composition in the
wide ranging art located in
the Goderich Co-op Gal-
lery. The craftsmanship of
James Mintz, the textures of
Anne Laviolette, and the
new still life of Madeleine
Roske were discussed on a
recent tour with Devon. No
matter how developed your
knowledge of art might be,
you can always learn more
during the last two tours,
on Aug. 23rd and 30th, both
at 2 p.m. Devon ultimately
helps the viewer to interact
with some paintings or
other artwork.
Well known artist Susan
Hay, who resides in Ben -
miller and Haliburton, will
be the guest artist for
August at the Co-op Gal-
lery. Painting seriously
since 2000, Susan has been
a regular exhibitor in local
shows for many years. This
past year was a banner year
for Susan; her show enti-
tled "Colours of the Land"
was held at the Blyth Festi-
val Art Gallery, "Land-
scapes Alive" was held in
the Ethel Curry Gallery in
Haliburton and she won
the Huron Arts and Herit-
age Network Individual
Artist award.
Landscapes are Susan's
passion although she paints
in a number of different
styles and other subject
matters. Lately inspired by
a trip to see her daughter
and family in the Yukon,
Susan used photo refer-
ences from this trip to cre-
ate this new work.
Susan's work is also
exhibited at the Clinton
Health Centre, the Main
Street Gallery in Bayfield,
Rail's End Gallery in Hali-
burton on occasion at Eliz-
abeth's Gallery, Goderich,
and on the Tour de Forest
Stdio Rour in Haliburton.
See Susan's website at
www.susanhay.ca for addi-
tional work.
The Goderich Co-op
Gallery is located at 54
Courthouse Square, and is
always staffed by a working
artist. Visit www.gcgallery.
ca or phone 519-440-0523

book, the gallery has a
great layout, and is warm
and inviting with a won-
derful selection of art
available. Our summer
