Open House - take two.

Is that a gingerbread replica of the fire-hall you ask? Why yes it is! Just a fun festive way to kick off our second open house, with Christmas just around the corner we thought a welcoming event with hot apple cider and hot chocolate would be perfect on November 28th, the day of the Lunenburg Santa Claus parade.


We were up til all hours of the morning preparing the tasty treats.


We had plenty of people coming though the space, enjoying the unseasonable warm weather and the freshly baked treats. We really enjoyed the support that we got from the whole community and it was wonderful to see so many new people out to see what we are up to.


A big thank you to all that came out and shared in this fun event with us. We will be sure to keep everyone posted on all of our up coming events.

November 28th Open House

An Introduction - our first open house

Already a month has passed since our September open house so we thought it was about time to post some pictures of our overwhelmingly successful evening.

The evening was entitled An Introduction and was the debut of our new studio set up as well as some art work to the Lunenburg community.

We had a great turnout of both Lunenburgers and NSCAD supporters and had a chance to meet many warm and welcoming individuals. Specifically we'd like to thank Senator Moore for his support for the program and to Sharon Blanchard and Joann Reynolds- Farmer of the NSCAD Extended Studies Department who helped facilitate the event.

While we don't know exactly how many attendees there were we do know that we didn't have a single pickle or smoked mackerel h'orderve left at the end of the evening so we're calling it a success.
