SUMMARY:Opening Reception: 'Mimosa' curated group exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Reception to meet all the artists will be Sunday March 24th from 2-4pm. Mingle with the artists\, be inspired\, and enjoy a Mimosa! \nLet’s celebrate women in the arts! The female artists who create\, the women who inspire artists to create\, the women in our community who need inspiration from other creative women!  An afternoon to engage\, encourage and express ourselves together. \nThis curated group exhibition in the gallery at the Elora Centre for the Arts\, will feature paintings\, photography\, mixed media\, textiles and sculpture – all in celebration of the female form\, positivity\, and strength.  \n \nLet’s encourage each other through the powerful creative expression of these talented artists!   \nAdmission is free.  Refreshments will be served (yes\, Mimosas will be on the menu!) PLUS free sample treatments from the professionals at IMpower Wellness! \nThis exhibition entitled “Mimosa” is a nod to the Mimosa flower that symbolizes female strength\, and is also the symbol of Women’s Day.  A single flower is lovely on it’s own\, but as a group of flowers in a bouquet it is truly stunning!  Presented by IMpower Wellness. \nThus\, the significance of a group show\, a collaborative “bouquet” that is meant to fill your soul.   Featured artists include: \nDanielle Arnold  |  Rosalinde Baumgartner  |  Indra Dosanjh  |  Carol Folino  |  Jessica Spooner  |  Janice Thomson\nTo find out more about the exhibition and the artists participating\, please click here. \n \n
