THE CITIZEN, THURSDAY, AUGUST 19, 2004. PAGE 17.
WI members attend Tweedsmuir workshop
A group of 65 ladies attended the
annual Tweedsmuir workshop for
London Area Women's Institutes,
held at the Mount Elgin Community
Hall Aug. 10.
There are fourteen museums in
Oxford and they were all invited to
put a display up for the day. Eight
different ones responded and each
curator described their display and a
brief description and history of their
museum.
Everyone sat around tables. Each
table represented something, such as
bird, insects, transportation. As each
person registered with the
Springford WI they were given a slip
of paper with names that would fit
the tables. This worked well to mix
up the groups.
This fall, Gallery Stratford is
showcasing 2, an exhibition of
artwork by Stratford based Doug
Peterman and Elmira-based Heather
Wood. Peterman is a skilled
furniture maker who explores self-
expression through his craft. Wood
is a glass artist whose 20-year career
is presently being surveyed at the
Canadian Clay and Glass Gallery in
Waterloo. Paired, their work draws
together gothic arches, tree
branches, colour, glass and wood.
On the show's origins, Peterman
reminisces: "The real seed for this
show came from a car trip that
Heather and I took to an Ontario
Crafts Council event in Haliburton a
few years ago. We hadn't met before
the trip, but five hours of driving
each way gave us lots of time to get
to know each other."
From this informal car-bound
Each table was given questions to
answer about Tweedsmuir histories
and how they are handled in
different branches.
This led to very interesting
discussions which were reported
back to the whole group. The
answers were given to the Oxford
curators.
It was hoped everyone would get
some new ideas and questions
answered, which seemed to happen.
Helen Whaling was in attendance
with lots of supplies for Tweedsmuir
history books that branches are
working on. One of the questions
was what is the difference between
the history book and the scrapbooks
and what would go into each. Some
branches keep scrapbooks and
meeting, Wood recognized a
connection between her work and
Peterman's: "a common thread of
reverence for trees and a recognition
of humanity's place as an integral
part of nature runs through our
work."
Peterman's work investigates the
boundary between what is natural
and what is artificial. His overt
manipulation of wood is always
done with a mindful respect of the
material's natural features.
Wood's body of work includes
photographic and organic images
sandblasted onto glass surfaces. She
uses the fragile medium of glass,
which alludes to human skin, to
address the precarious relationship
between humans and their natural
environment
Running concurrently with 2 is the
annual Lawson Killer Perth Huron
others don't.
After lunch there was a slide
presentation by the Springford
Branch which won second place in
an FWIC Tweedsmuir competition
in 1982. The topic was Birth and
Development of a Small
Community.
The mystery object was a hat or
fedora stretcher. Another activity
was a line-up of bottles filled with
different kinds of grain to see how
many could be identified. This
created a lot of interest.
Ruth Axford reported on some of
the activities by FWIO including
great interest in the quilt shows, has
been some gain in memberships,
four new posters have been created
and will be available. There are still
Juried Exhibition, which gives local
and regional artists - amateur and
professional alike - the opportunity
to submit artworks to be juried and
then displayed to the viewing public.
This year, Peterman and Wood
will jury the submitted artworks.
Always presenting a range of work,
this exhibition sponsored by Lawson
Killer Insurance, has supported and
encouraged the rich artistic life of
the Perth Huron region for over
twenty years.

a number of positions to fill before
the area convention at Holmesville,
Oct. 5.
Mary Gladwin, archivist of
Oxford County spoke on the
preservation of photographs. She
stressed the importance of the
Tweedsmuir histories which have
been compiled by Women's
Institutes. They are a valuable
resource.
It is important to keep pictures and
documents in an acid-free
environment. Also it's a good idea to
take at least one roll of black and
white film, which keeps better for a
long period of time. Coloured
pictures start to fade in a few
years.
Use good quality film and good
quality processing. Albums should
be stored in an upright position.
It is a good idea to have the
original Tweedsmuir Histories
stored in the local archives and
copies kept in libraries for research.
Some groups are now putting their
history on CD disks.
