Opening Reception
Please join us for the exhibit opening on Thursday February 1st from 7:00 – 8:30 pm.
This show is about immigrants… and aren’t we all immigrants, or children and grandchildren of immigrants. Julia Penny is a portrait artist living in the Interlake Region of Manitoba. She herself is an immigrant, having arrived fifty years ago in 1967 in Canada’s Centennial year. Fifty years later she is honouring as many immigrants as she possibly can with a portrait and short biography on each person she finds.
