What did you learn in school today? Sharing.
Hi, actually my comment was simply to suggest updating the event to include Rebecca’s presence. The whole star studded night thing comes from the gallery.
No need to print this clarifying comment, okay. It is just that I hit the return key and the earlier comment was sent before I could stop it, yikes.
Upcoming Events
A STAR STUDDED NIGHT AT THE GALLERY
In person, acclaimed authors Alistair MacLeod and Nino Ricci, along with internationally known visual and performance artist Rebecca Belmore,
Friday, January 27 at 7:30 pm SHARP. Doors open at 7 pm.

Hi Nino. Just want to say how much we are looking forward to your visit to the Thunder Bay Art Gallery in conjunction with Sense of Place.
There is already a buzz in the community about you and Alistair being here!
