In the Media & In the Gallery

Believe it or not, it's hard to keep up with all that's going on the rug hooking world this month! Below you can read about the latest & greatest....and don't forget:

Next week's Thursday (April 20) get together will be at the gallery.  That's where we'll play host to 47 (!) grade 3 & 4 students.  The focus that day will be on Pioneer Days, but the hope is that the students will get to do some rug hooking, too.

The following Monday (April 24) is our regular monthly meeting and that's where you'll want to bring your rugs destined for the Annual.  We'll test out a mockup of the display.  

EVEN more in the news!

There were two articles in this week's Northumberland Today.  One article was on the Vimy tribute rug on display at the Art Gallery of Northumberland.  Click here to read about it.

The other article was on the Campellford Library display of rugs, part of the Then and Now exhibit.  I haven't been able to find an online version of the article, but here's a photo of it.  If you click on it you should be able to read it!

Port Hope High School Student Visit

On Tuesday of this week, 24 students from Port Hope came to the gallery to see the exhibit and learn how to hook rugs.  Many from our group were on hand to assist them.  (Thanks to Judy Cross for these photos!)
