Round 'i1 About with Martha
Martha Rathburn
It was nice to see so many
friends from Goderich dur-
ing the celebration of
CIDERFEST at Seaforth.
This was two very busy days
and I enjoyed it. I had been
invited to show my paintings
in the fine old Van Egmond
home which is being suc-
cessfully renovataed.
The Saturday weather
slowed the activities but Sun-
day, after church, was a
busy, happy day. I saw a
great number of folks I had
been, missing and became
acquainted with a new lot - a
real pleasure.
To add to the day - Sunday
evening I went to the
meeting at the Foundation -
or "Livery" - as it is being
called. It will be the home of
the music, arts and theatre
groups besides a place for
conventions, weddings and
such, dances and shows of all
kinds. We certainly need this
building, and it will be fulfill-
ing the dream of a great

many who have worked so
hard to bring it about. They
hope to pass this dream on to
all of us.
Dorothy Wallace gave a
fine introduction to the
Livery. Iain Bain talked of
the future of the Livery.
The attendance was good
except there might have
been a larger percentage of
theatre membership.
Goderich has one of the
largest theatre` member-
ships in Southwestern On-
tario-
n-tario- a surprising figure.
In order to begin all the
renovating, raising money
and making the facility
known near and far, there
had to be a group to take it
on. The "Goderich Founda-
tion for the Performing
Arts" seems like a mouthful
but it covers a great many
activities and the old
"Livery" will become the
home for these activities.
The "Foundation" will be
the landlord to make the
"Livery" available to all
citizens in the area. It con-
sists of a Board of Directors
and five working commit-
tees. Mrs. Dorothy Wallace
is President with Phil
McMillan, Vice -President.
Architects Hill and Barge]
are in charge of the shape of
things. The property com-
mittee is heeded by John
Kuran and Bob Allin;
finance by Fred Durst and
Ray Dunlop. Special events
(for example the Steel Band
and Western Night held
recently). worried over by
Maria Metcalfe; fund-
raising by D. 0 Wallace, John
Graham, Dennis Little and
others; programming, Phil
MacMillan.
Iain Bain talked of the
state of things now and of the
future for this • grand old
building. Since Spring of '82
more than $60;000 has been -
spent on the new support
steel work, a great new roof
with its new cupolas, new
doors, the removal or a large
window and restoration of
Original stonework, much
building inside for
bathrooms, office and other
space needed.
Support has come• mainly
from citizens and clubs in
town and some donations
from large corporations and
charitable foundations who
see the potential of the
Livery. The entire restora-
tion is to preserve the best of
our heritage. Goderich has
become known nationally
and internationally for its
unique architecture. We
need a focal point to attract
the tourist to The Square, to
spend 'some time AND
dollars. The Livery can DO
this. The Ontario Science
Centre will bring their show
next Spring if we are ready.
-This winter they hope to
make the Livery opera-
tional. They have applied to
the Federal -Government re:
a Canada Community
Development Program
grant, giving work to people
during November,
December and January.
The Livery can complete
the . tourist triangle from
Stratford and Blyth to Grand
Bend with Goderich at the
APEX. -Of this the Ontario
Government Tourism
Ministry is interested and
supportive.
This could revitalize the
entire downtown core with
the best of our heritage
buildings preserved. The
TAX base will be strengthen-
ed by the tourist dollars.
There will be a waiting list
for available stores on The
Square.
The community NEEDS
the Livery.
Little Theatre can expand;
music boosters, visual artist
exhibitions and craft' shows;
dances; seminars; conven-
tions, receptions and on and
On, can take place in this fine
hall. The Livery offers
downtown location, easy
parking, ground floor access
and facilities close to stores
restaurantsand hotels.
This winter they hope to
make the Livery operational
but they need $30,000 to pay
for materials - 300 people
giving $100 or 600 with $50.
Without this help this year —
the Livery could fail, - the
dream for the betterent of
our nice town could die and
the opportunity would be lost
forever.
They NEED everyone to

Larson who is curating this
exhibition, has produces'
jewelry for the last 18 yeas
and is particularly well-
known in Nova Scotia and
Alberta where"he has been a
teacher in this field.
The jurying was severe;
from 300 entries, only 22
goldsmiths were selected for
the show. Claus Bury
reminded entrants that it
was the jury's duty and
responsibility to show "the
best" and that anything
short of excellent would not
give Canada a very good
name and image abroad.
Lois and Orland proudly an-
nounced that the accepted
pieces were indeed ex-
cellent, and in many cases,
extraordinary and that it
certainly was an exhibition
of which Canada and Cana-
dians can be justly proud.
The selection was as
follows: Nova Scotia had two
accepted, Quebec had six;
Ontario 11 and Alberta three.
When the jurying was
finished, all of the jury
agreed this could be the most
interesting and exciting ex-
hibition of jewelry ever to
,come out of Canada.
Robert Stoddart has also
won a number of Canadian
awards from the Metal Arts
Guild of Ontario and the On-
tario Crafts. Council.
