The Craft Year 2007 Committee of the P.E.I. Crafts Council is moving forward with its plans to hold a Holland College School of Visual Arts Reunion. All across Canada crafts are being celebrated through an initiative of the Canadian Crafts Federation "Craft Year 2007 Année des métiers d’art".It has proven to be a challenge to find the mailing addresses for former graduates, for a mail out and ask that any former graduate contact us with their current mailing address. The school ceased operations in the 1990's. It is important to note the school was a major force in the professionalizing of the craft industry on the Island.
Some of the events we are planning are:
- Kite Flying - you remember the fun -- so dig out anything that will fly -- even a frisbee, for an afternoon of fun with old friends.
- “Then and Now” Show Participants will be asked to bring a piece of their work from the past and a recent piece of work.
- Slide Show - Ian Scott will put together a slide show. If you have any old photographs and are able to scan photographs send them along to Ian scotts@pei.sympatico.ca for more information
- Barbara Henry or bhenry@hollandc.pe.ca - and put 2007 SVA Reunion in the subject line
- Ian Scott scotts@pei.sympatico.ca 902-892-5796
Help Us Make Your Reunion the Best Possible it can be!!!!!
