✨ WORKSHOP ANNOUNCEMENT ✨

Eptek is thrilled to announce that we are hosting a Drawing Techniques Workshop with contemporary PEI artist Denise Livingstone on Tuesday, October 20th from 1-3pm!

This workshop is designed to level up the drawing skills of participants. They will engage in exercises that use their spatial/left brains, so they begin to draw what they see. Denise will draw from her years of teaching others to draw and paint, and will lead discussions around what makes an effective drawing in order to provide ways for participants to improve their current skill levels.

This workshop is beginner and intermediate level-friendly. Registration is $25, all materials will be provided, and spaces are limited.

For more information, or to register, call 902-888-8373 (or visit us online at www.peimuseum.com, facebook.com/EptekCentre, and instagram.com/eptek.centre).

Sunday, October 4th, join us from 2 - 4 pm for the opening of our newest satellite exhibition, held in the Harbourfront Theatre’s lounge gallery.

“Scotland: My ancestral home” with oil paintings by Ellen Martin will be on display, based on spiritual experiences Martin had during a recent trip to Scotland and endeavours to capture the magic and mystery she found in the ancient landscape. Its rugged and raw beauty gave her a sense of going back in time.

The exhibition includes large original oil paintings of Moy Castle, Duart Castle, associated with the MacLean clan, and Eilean Donan Castle, among other well-known Scottish landmarks. At Duart Castle, Martin observed swallows swooping and darting about, while sparrows had seemingly taken over Eilean Donan Castle.

“Scotland, My Ancestral Home” will remain on display for October. A book of the same name, depicting Martin’s experience, will also be available for sale (at Harbourfront Theatre during the opening event, and at Eptek Art & Culture Centre otherwise).

Please note that Eptek Centre itself is closed today for the changing of exhibitions in the main gallery. Join us next door on Sunday, at the Harbourfront Theatre. Refreshments will be served, and all are welcome.
