Explore diverse creativity with the Heritage Centre Makers – from wood crafts and unique fabric arts to engaging books and watercolours.
A collective of seven local crafters whose hands weave the very essence of West Central Saskatchewan’s ingenuity into each piece. Journey through a remarkable exhibit, where barnwood transforms under Ed Jensen, Tony Peter, and Sally Laidlaw’s touch into rustic treasures, telling tales as timeless as the materials they’re crafted from. Poetic lines and fantastic narratives leap from the pages of books penned by the thoughtful Dean Weldon and Rose Kendall, transporting you to worlds both familiar and fantastical.
In the hands of Mackenzie Simonson, a palette of watercolours blossoms into delicate greeting cards, each a personal touch to cherish. Artistry spins into form with the intricate wooden articles of Tony Peter, whose lathe-carved wonders encapsulate beauty in rotation. Rose’s succulent garden is a serene spectacle, a living canvas where green thumbs and hearty blooms are in dialogue, ready to share their story with curious onlookers.
And not to be missed is Bill Frerichs, whose brushstrokes capture the vast array of scenes and subjects in his expressive acrylic paintings. Each canvas an open window to his perspective, inviting you into a world refracted through his vibrant lens. The Heritage Artisans’ stop on the River and Rail ArtVenture is more than an exhibition; it’s an intimate insight into the hearts and minds of local creatives, all under one roof for an encounter that’s truly handpicked and homegrown.
