With warm parkas and snow tires we headed out to the McMichael Gallery in the town of Kleinberg to see the Maud Lewis Exhibition and we were not disappointed. Such a lovely location but some of our group had been years ago and noted that a huge neighborhood has grown up around it and has changed the atmosphere some.
Due to extreme temperatures of -15 we decided not to walk around the small centre but to do a drive-by with hopes to return again in warmer weather.
A delicious lunch was served up at the Gallery and reccommended by our own Lynda, it was yummy!! a must try is the Roasted Squash, beet and goat cheese sandwich on sour dough bread with roasted potatoes, I'm hungry just thinking about it!!!!!!!!!
I guess what I have taken away from the experience if that to Maud Lewis, painting was like breathing, she just "had to do it"
See photos below
We also saw different artists paintings there
