16th ANNIVERSARY

The Premiere Juried Art Show and Sale in Eastern Ontario

Celebrating its landmark 16th year, ART IN THE COUNTY promises to be an exciting anniversary event. Last year, over 3000 people visited the 2-week show, featuring 72 artists and 100 works that included watercolour, acrylic, oil, glass, fibre arts, pottery, ceramics, photography, sculpture and jewellery.

All work submitted for the show is judged by a panel of professionals in the visual arts. The 2009 jury members are: Pat Fairhead, considered one of Canada’s top women painters, Richard Martin, photographer and workshop presenter across Canada and the United States on photography and visual design and Sandy McMurrick, publisher and art distributor, promoting the development of young Canadian artists.

“We are very pleased to provide a showcase for the high-calibre art being created in Prince Edward County. The County is exploding with artistic talent, rapidly becoming a mecca for art, with more than 300 resident artists and artisans calling it home. Submissions to the Art in the County show run the full range of artistic expression and feature the work of both new and established artists,” states Don Pinder, spokesperson of the Organizing Committee. “ART IN THE COUNTY is always refreshing, innovative and stimulating.”

Several awards are given out at the show: 5 Jurors’ Awards, 5 Honourable Mentions, and, for the fifth year, the Doug Boult Excellence in Photography Award. (The late Doug Boult of Wellington was an inductee into the US Photography Hall of Fame, and former editor of Canada Camera Magazine.)

Also, visitors to ART IN THE COUNTY cast ballots for their favorite work through the People’s Choice Award.

As an extra bonus, visitors can enter a raffle to win works of art donated by local artists. This year, two artists have generously donated their work: Tracy Douglas, painter from Wellington and David Boorne, sculptor and painter from The County.
