The show will run the gamut from pure watercolour landscapes to rich, vibrant abstracts, paintings large and small, pottery, hand-crafted wooden furniture and quirky, sublime urban folk art. “A knock-out show,” declared SCAP founder Hillman. “It's going to be amazing having all this edgy art in the 150-year-old barn. We have lovely local landscapes as well as the less traditional work. And we're really excited about the folk art sculptures. It's something new for us this year.” A silent auction, which will feature lots of arty items up for bid, will be in support of Caledon Community Services. It's the group's way of giving back. “This is a great chance to buy art and support CCS's wonderful work at the same time,” Hillman said. “We even have original sculptures by Hugh Russel in the auction.” The opening will be tomorrow (Friday) from 5:30 to 9 p.m. in the studio and barn at Silver Creek Farm, 16849 Kennedy Rd. Opening night will feature a live performance by Falcon Jane, a band with local roots, who will be performing between 7 and 9. Their new CD will be on sale at the event. Sponsors for the opening include Woolwich Dairy, Gourmandissimo, Howard the Butcher and Pommies. SCAP #8 runs from Sept. 19 to Oct. 4. It will be open Saturdays and Sundays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Demonstrations and hands-on activities will take place throughout the show.
