Her passion for creating is shown in her unique woodburned designs completed on a mix of locally sourced woods. The pyrography classes Heather teaches are perfect for beginners or seasoned pyrography students that are ready to bring their art to the next level. \nFrom the lines and patterns naturally in the wood to the slow immersive process of woodburning. Heather is drawn to the extensive depth and texture attainable with the medium that is almost sculptural. Heather completed her Bachelor’s of Arts at University of Toronto and Sheridan Institute in Art and Art History. She specialized in Sculpture\, Print Media and Photography. The accumulation of her interests are quite apparent in her work. Her burnings are available in a variety of forms from wall art & portraits to usable household items like charcuterie boards\, spoons\, ornaments and more.

Meet a Mae West quoting Angel. Meet Earl\, an underperforming reporter who becomes the media liaison for God. Meet Simon\, a clay-footed mortal man whose life needs a do-over. \nTry your hand at musical trivia too! Come for some laughs\, music and stories! \n \nDonna McCaw has presented the popular Remembering Leonard shows and Wordfest at the ECFTA\, offered storytelling workshops in many venues\, written six books\, and toured a number of shows from Women’s Voices\, to Barn Yarns and The Spell of Crazy Love. The latest is 2022’s Across the Great Divide. \nMartin Featherston’s novel Nothing Sacred is about a rather inept reporter who becomes the media liaison for God and the laughter follows. Martin has a brash and quick-witted satirical style of writing that is engaging and laugh out loud funny. \nPaul Whitaker has entertained many diverse audiences with his encyclopedic knowledge of music\, his guitar and rich voice. \n \n  \nRead about this event in the Wellington Advertiser! \n  \n
