November 26 Season's Greetings ~Hello Gang,
The holiday's are here again. Boy, time flies. It just seems like yesterday that summer was just around the corner and we were looking forward to getting outside to enjoy the good weather. Thank God for Christmas, bringing with it lots to keep us occupied, to help speed through the colder season ahead.
Firstly, I hope you've had the chance to check out my current album of photographs. Not all of the pictures were taken over the last few months but all of them are new to my blog.
I've a number of events on the go. I'm hoping some of you will make it out to 1 or 2 of them, 2 of which are juried competitions that include a 'People Choice Award' presented to the winning Artist/Photographer once the exhibits comes to an end ~
The list is as follows:
I'll be this year's selected vendor at Peel Pride's Holiday Dance, www.prideeventspeel.com, at Norma Jeane's, a night club located in the Dixie & 401 area of Mississauga on Saturday November 29th. Please go to www.normajeanes.com for directions. I'll be donating 40% of all proceeds toward a raffled framed photograph, 'Neighbourly Visit' (in my '2008 Current' album), as well as 20% of all items sold. This is an important fund-raising party that helps ensure that future events, most importantly the Annual Pride Picnic in Brampton, are able to be funded. Come out and 'dance the night away' ~
CAMH 1001 Queen Street West in Toronto, at Ossington Avenue, will be holding their Christmas Craft Show this year on Thursday December 4th between 9:30am-2:30pm in the inner courtyard/mall. A percentage of the items I sell will go towards a donation for 2009's 'Bell Walk for Kid's Help Phone'.
As a new member I'll be participating in Visual Arts Mississauga's 1st Annual Juried Photographic & New Media Show, December 10th - December 24th, 4170 Riverwood Park Lane, Mississauga. The Opening Ceremony will be held on the 10th from 6:00pm and refreshments will be served. Please see www.visualartsmississauga.com for all the details. I'll be submitting 2 of my framed photographs for consideration. Please let me know if you're able to make it on 10th and perhaps I can plan for a get-together afterwards at a restaurant near by. However please remember that if the 10th doesn't work for you that the exhibit runs straight through until the 24th. Don't forget to place your ballot for the 'People's Choice award'.
Beaux Art's Brampton , 70 Main Street, will be holding their Juried Christmas Art Show and Sale December 9th - January 3rd. A reception is being held on the 11th from 5:00 - 9:00pm. Special Musical guest Karen Coluter will be performing, and as well refreshments and appetizers will be served. I'll be exhibiting 4 of my framed photographs at this event. See www.beaux-artsbrampton.com for directions and further details. Again, An opportunity will be given at this event for all that attend to vote for the 'People's Choice' painting or photograph.
As for now that is all that I'll be doing until mid to late february at which time I have 2 shows scheduled. I'll fill you in on the details mid January.
I wish you all the very best over the holiday season. May this be your greatest one ever. Please feel free to get in touch with me if you intend on being in the area and want to drop by for a visit. You are always welcome... rossosp@hotmail.com
Be safe ~
Cheers,
Ross
