Sending thanks to Dr. Sharon McCoubrey, to the Art

Sending thanks to Dr. Sharon McCoubrey, to the ArtWalk Committee volunteers, and to all of the people who made the ArtWalk 2021 “Taking it Outside” event happen. It was a remarkable Saturday! They even ordered perfect weather for people to tour all 12 outdoor destinations and visit all 38 artists.

I spent the day at the beautiful Kaloya Regional District Park where we listened to wonderful music by the talented teen singer songwriter Scotty Berg, while people visited our art displays and contributed to our big nature mandala on the lawn. We met so many enthusiastic, interested supporters of the arts. Paintings and drawings found great homes, and there were many wonderful conversations and connections. I had a really great time setting up the nature circle with friends, then throughout the day we watched it grow with each new addition!
