Janet Cardiff of R.R. 5,
Brussels, was selected by her
school, Queen's University,
to participate in Artventure,
a program of organized. ex-
hibitions developed by The
Royal Bank of Canada to
recognize and encourage On-
tario's most promising stu-
dent artists.
The exhibition, "In-
vitational", opened May 30
in the Upper Banking Hall of
Royal Bank Plaza at Bay and
Front Streets, Toronto. It
continues through June 29
and is open to the public
during business hours, Mon-
day through Frida y, 9:30
a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
Artventure provides Ont-
ario's most talented young
artists with two critical ele-
ments in their career de-
velopment -- significant ex-
posure and meaningful credit
for their work. The directors
and heads of selected in-
dependent art schools and
art programs in unive rsities
and community colleges
cross Ontario recommend the
best works of their studentg
for inclusion in the ex-
hibition.
Three cash awards of
$400, $200 and $100 are
made at the close of each
exhibition. Award selection
is the responsiblility of ro-
tating panels of respected
visual arts professionals --
artists, art dealers, gallery
directors and critics. These
panels evaluate each ex-
hibition on the basis of the
merit of the work exhibited,
as well as an asse ssment of
the student's potential.
Each of the changing
monthly exhibitions features
works in a different medium
-- painting, sculpture, print-
making, or drawing, along
with experimental work.
Students from the follow-
ing schools are participating
in "Invitational": University
of Waterloo; Arts' sake Inc.,
Toronto; University of
Guelph; Ontario -College of
Art, Toronto; Woolfitt School
of Contemporary Painting,
Toronto; and Queen's Uni-
versity, Kingston.

Universities are now
exploring new ways of util-
izing their resources to bene-
fit the community at large.
Nowhere is this more evident
than at the University of
Guelph. Every July entire
families, as well as indiv-
iduals, arrive to enjoy a
different kind of summer
vacation.
Guelph's Summer Campus
program takes full advantage
of the University's facilities
and serene setting to create a
holiday which combines
relaxation and learning for
all ages and interests.
When the Gracey family of
Bolton attended Summer
Campus, Charles Gracey
chose to study conversational
French. As the manager of
the Canadian Cattlemen's
Association explains, "I
think the whole country
should be bilingual, and I've
always had a bug about
wanting to speak better
French."
On a typical day, when Mr.
Gracey was busy with French
pronouns and prepositions,
in another classroom his wife
Donna was drawing up plans
for their backyard in her
landscape architecture class.
Meanwhile their three child-
ren were busy in other parts
of the campus. Matthew,
then three, was painting.
Darren, seven, was playing
baseball, and 10 year old
Patrick was learning to use a
computer. Later in the after-
noon, the family got together
to swap stories about the
day's activities and have a
swim. After dinner, they
attended a campus musical.
Mrs. Gracey particularly
appreciated the chance to
learn about landscaping
without having to make
meals or Worry about the
children.
David Buchanan of Ottawa
has attended Summer
Campus several times. An
urban planner, he appreci-
ates the chance to "meet
people from different walks
of life and to study a subject
for its sheer interest value
without the pressure of
exams or essays." All of the
The last meeting of the
Melville Guild before mem-
bers retire for the summer
months, was held June 19th,
at, the home of Donna Knight.
Valerie Shortreed opened
the meeting with a poem
entitled, "The Family,"
which was followed by the
theme presented by Brenda
Perrie, which dealt with the
"Home & Family" and rec-
ognizing the International
Year of the Child.
Donna Knight led in pray-
er and then opened the
business portion of the meet-
ing. Isabel Adams read a
very interesting resume of
the Life history of the
Guild which was established
in 1947, with. Marg Sweeney
being the first president. The
first wedding the guild ever
catered to was that of Jean
Yuill and Walter Bewly in
1949.
Groups 1 and 2 provided
lunch for our 125th anniver-
sary and the cookies and
squares that remained after
the service were frozen and
will be used 'at the church
one-week courses are non-
credit.
The program was estab-
lished by Professor Jim
Murray, the University's
associate director of continu-
ing education, in 1976. To his
knowledge, Summer Campus
is unique. "In the United
States there are a few similar
programs," he says, "but
these are usually limited to
alumni and do not offer the
breadth of youth programs
available here."
To provide youngsters
with a lively combination of
fun and learning, Professor
Murray has divided the
youth program into three
parts to accommodate 3 to 5,
6 to 10 and 11 to 15 year olds.
This year the youngest group
will be informally introduced
to Orff music and French in
their songs and games. For
their two hour daily work-
shops, the two older groups
can choose crafts, music
appreciation, journalism,
picnic being held at the
Conservation Park on July
15th.
The smorgasbord held in
May resulted in a profit of
$676.76 and the Presbyterial
dinner resulted in a profit of
$246.14.
On a motion of Leona
Armstrong and seconded by
Winnifred Edgar the Guild
agreed to present the Board
of Managers with a cheque
for $1500.00 towards the
renovations of the church.
The roll call was answered
with "My favourite summer
past time." A miscellaneous
shower is to be held in the
church basement on Wed.
June 27 for Cathy Bone-
schansker.
The Guild members were
cordially invited to the 25th
anniversary party for Jim

held on Aug. 25th in the

ings for the summer.
