“This Gallery regularly pleases and is always worth a visit. It's not large, but the eclectic exhibitions are usually worth a visit. Don't forget to check the yard. Even in the nighttime the outside is neat. These 2 exhibitions are by 3 artists. Sheila Spence and Gilles Hebert have an exhibition Back to Paradise. Both artists have displayed a series of items and images that conjure up memories of pleasant times and fun places. Spence's photographs of family outings, mostly at Grand Beach, are both nostalgic and evocative of family get togethers. Hebert's collection of collections of found memories is like looking at myriad time capsules of not only people but cultures as well. There are some oddities, check out the rocking chair off to the side. Freya Perron is an artist working in textiles. Here she is using the soft textures of woolly like things to create the shapes more usually associated with rocks and other hard objects. In addition, the works are all mounted and framed in exquisite fashion, the framer even gets a nod at the entrance. It is interesting that at first they don't seem like much, but you quickly realize that they are very attractive and pleasing. (Possibly this is a result of my background since there is a strong resemblance to Star Trek tribbles) Almost with a sense of chamber music, they would provide a pleasant atmosphere to any setting. It's not a large Gallery, but it is always worth visiting if you're in the area, and very often worth the effort even if you are not. Bus service is very good, so you don't need to worry about parking. There are several good restaurants within walking distance, especially Chaise Lounge just down the street.”

“I go here every February for some reason. It's incredibly cold but I still go. But it's the est sugar shack in town. It has the only authentic sugar shack in town. Only 5 days in February though. They are also the best place for drinking fortified wine named after a wannabe moose out of an ice shot glass to boot. Well I'm not sure what else to say about the place. It's pretty gosh darn amazing though. But like I said, only like 5 days in February.”
