2011 Events
Deerheart Studios open by appointment. Look for our house number on the purple sign post (4735 Cowichan Lake Road), the second driveway past the East Indian Crematorium. My studio is only about 12 minutes from downtown Duncan. How about taking a lovely country drive past long views of the southern valley mountains, flower stands, horse farms, and fresh country air. My studio displays my work so please schedule a visit even if it's from your cell in your car from the driveway. Go to my contact page for a map. April 9-12 Cowichan Valley Arts Community Spring Fine Art Show I entered two necklaces of using patina treated sheet copper, rivets, wire, copper mesh, wire, and handmade chain. I teamed up with artist friend, Rosemary Danaher, and had a booth at the Gift Cottage which featured our various styles of jewelry. www.cowichanvalleyartscouncil.ca May - October Nanaimo Downtown Farmers' Market on Pioneer Waterfront Plaza, www.nanaimofarmersmarket.com My friend, Joyce, and I will sell our work at the market most Fridays.

The setting and the high calibre of teachers draw artists from far and wide.
