Huron-PerthArtsCouncil formed
Does your local historical society
need a guest speaker? Would you
like a kit on making pottery for your
Grade 6 class? Or perhaps you
need a story teller for your library.
These are some of the many
areas of interest and that the new
Huron-Perth Arts Council has
under it mandate, which is the
promotion and development of the
arts in the Huron-Perth area.
The Council grew out of a group
called the Four County Arts
Committee which ran a seminar on
fund-raising for small arts organ
izations in the south-western
Ontario region in 1985. The need
for an ongoing organization to keep
artists, educators, conservors, and
arts administrators in touch with
each other became very apparent.
Out of this concern grew the idea
for an area arts council which
would not only promote arts
awareness in Huron-Perth but also
keep people in touch through a
regular newsletter.
The Huron-Perth Arts Council
was formed in mid-1986 and plans
were immediately made to start a
long-range programme to rejuv-
enate and make available a large
number of educational kits from
Gallery Stratford for use in Huron-
Perth schools. The new Board of
Directors also started a member
ship campaign and by fall ‘86 had
sent out its first newsletter to the
membership. The focus of the
Council’s activities presently cen
tres around building membership
in the organization, acquiring
office space, and preparing the kits
foruseby schools, libraries and
interested organizations next fall.
The kits’ topics range from sculp
ture, architecture, posters, and
famous artists to a variety of ones
on Canadian heritage and other
cultures.
Through its networking between
artists and the community, the
Arts Council will alsobe able to
make arrangements for artists and
speakers to visit schools and
address organizations#in the area.
News of various upcoming events
in Huron-Perth is published in the
Council’s newsletter and organiza-
tions are encouraged to let the
Council know of exhibits and
events that would be of interest to
the membership and community.
New members are very welcome
to join the Arts Council and can
receive information by phoning
Karen Scott-Booth at the Gallery
Stratford at 271-5271, or Lynda
Lentz at the Blyth Festival 523-
4345.
