Hello, Folks. I have promised Amanda to write a few blogs
from time to time, so bear with me. As a
grandma who grew up in a family that preferred ‘show me’ to ‘tell me,’ I am not
all that comfortable with revealing some of the thought that creeps across my
brain pan in the creative process, but maybe if I get out of my comfort zone
and learn to articulate what’s going on, who knows where that may lead?
I just wanted to draw the craft community’s
attention to something going on that SCC members may be interested in
participating in. Sask Culture, which is funded through Sask Lotteries, is sponsoring Culture Days the last weekend of
September. Apparently there were grants
available this year, although the deadline (May 15) has come and gone. The idea is to celebrate the wealth of
cultural activity throughout the province and expose people to new activities
or interests. The activities need to provide free
access to people and the possibility of interaction or participation to engage
the public.
