The Works Festival in Edmonton

I'm terrible at updating this thing, my sincere apologies.  So this week, and right up until July 4th, the Works Festival is happening in Edmonton in the downtown/Churchill Square area.  It's a great place to visit, lots of good art, okay art, and um.... shopping carts?  (You'll have to visit to see that piece).  But this year is really special as Mia helped the Ceramics Club team up with VASA (the University of Alberta's Visual Art Society) to create a show for this year's Works festival, entitled 'Human Energy: A Capacity for Fellowship'.  If you are interested in seeing some amazing ceramic pieces from a few of this year's grads, and, um... me, then check it out in the Stanley A. Milner Library, Site #5, in the Edmonton Room.  If you head down the stairs on the right-hand side once you come in the main doors and turn left at the bottom, you should see it.

Our Red Deer College students participating include, Mia Riley, K.T. Furness, Kaleb Romano, and Carlene La Rue.  Above I've attached a picture of Kaleb's piece.

The Works is one of MANY festivals that happen in Edmonton over the summer.  It's a great chance to attend and support the arts community, gather some ideas and inspiration, and absolutely support collaborations between our College and other post-secondary institutions.
