Gallery: "The Saugeen Artists"
Not so far away, in a
neighbouring county, there
is an artist's collective, called
"The Saugeen Artists": This
group was formed about 10
years ago, when a local artist,
who owned a blue house, felt
inspired to invite other art-
ists to paint and show their
art in her house.
Originally conceived as a
Coop, the group displayed
their work in The Blue House
Gallery for about five years.
They have evolved from
those days into a far more
disparate group, which now
includes art forms such as
pottery, metalwork sculp-
ture, designer handbags,
jewellery, blacksmith works,
stained and fused glass
work, and rugs, in addition
to watercolour, acrylic, and
oil paintings. Members no
longer have a permanent
home such as the one which
that original blue house pro-
vided, but instead create
individual showings of the
club member's work at vari-
ous area events and public
festivals throughout the Sau-
geen watershed year round.

They do come together once
a month for meetings in
Hanover to conduct club
business, keep in touch with
each other, hear an occa-
sional guest speaker, have a
demonstration of a particu-
lar product or technique,
and share issues of interest
to members.
Thus, the focus of the club
is very much on the member
artist's interests, sharing, and
support of one another, as
well as finding venues to
show their work.
As an example of this,
GCG member Susan Peck
O'Brien is also a member of
the Saugeen painter' s
group. She and some of her
fellow Saugeen Artist's
group have arranged to
meet weekly over the sum-
mer to have informal out-
door painting sessions. So,
even without bricks and
mortar surrounding them as
a group, it is plain to see
they maintain their connec-
tions with and support of
one another. To that end,
with members arriving from
various towns in the area,
they take full advantage of
geography and participate
in many local events, studio
tours, and shows in Hano-
ver, Paisley, and Walkerton,
and as far afield as Owen
Sound, and now Goderich.
Their main endeavour for
the year, however, is their
Christmas "pop-up" Store.
During the months of
November and December,
all members who wish to
participate rent a store, set
up their art, staff the store,
and await the,crowds. The
local residents quickly
caught on to this opportu-
nity, and look forward to
seeing new art, and be able
to make their purchases just
in time for Christmas; this
seasonal store has been very
successful. Susan has gath-
ered together some of the •
Saugeen Artist's group to
display their work at the
Goderich CoOp Gallery for
the rest of February until
mid March.
Everyone is welcome to
visit the Goderich CoOp Gal-
lery during winter hours,
Wednesday through Satur-
day, from 10:00 a.m., until
4:00 p.m.
