    Exhibit Marks a Watershed Moment

    Once in while you have the chance to be in a place at a time that you know marks a singularmoment. On October 16th the Eastend Arts Council presented its first Juried Art Show; anexhibit featuring Eastend, Its People, History and Landscape. Twenty four artists from allparts of Saskatchewan participated to make this an impressive display of talent and interpre-tation on the theme. Cecilia Elizabeth of the OSAC acted as the adjudicator and selectedpieces that will travel throughout SW Saskatchewan over the next year.

    I think the quality of the work submitted for this show surprised everyone. It was a firstclass event that would have been well received in any large city. It was clear that all the art-ists strived to produce pieces that were pushing their creative limits. They more than ex-ceeded themselves.

    It was a powerful experience to see the Southwest through the eyes of people who havelived and worked in the area. Some artists had traveled through here because the SW is richwith visual material. However, many of the artists have working commitments to farms andranches in the area and for them those elements are a source of creative energy for their artwork. Artists from more remote locations also submitted work. Many are people who wereoriginally from the SW or Eastend itself and continue to reflect that strong influence throughtheir creative endeavours. Whatever the source, this landscape of independent, conscien-tious people has given rise to a wealth of creative talent that expresses itself through appre-ciation of the texture of everyday life. This is not folk art, this is Fine Art.

    Cecilia Elizabeth of the OSAC (Organization of Saskatchewan Arts Councils) provided aprofessional evaluation of all the work submitted. Her extensive background in artistic crea-tion and instruction qualifies her as a very capable critic. She went out of her way to giveconstructive comments on the composition, colour, presentation, materials and techniqueused by each artist. Her valued assistance lifted the exhibit to a new and higher level thanweve experienced before in Eastend. Cecilia also presented insightful explanations to thegeneral public on what the adjudication process comprises.

    Every participant learned something new. Everyone was relieved to finally get their work tothe show and was cautious to see what the whole event would be like. Without exceptionthey were all exhilarated and rather amazed by the experience. The Juried Art Show was awatershed event that marked the acknowledged establishment of Eastend as a valid and re-spected centre for the arts in the SW. The Arts Council and the organizers of the show

    (Gabriele Kck, Alice Hanlin and Trea Jensen) deserve a great deal of credit for the effortnecessary to persistently manoeuvre the venue, the artists and their exhibit to a successfulconclusion. This is a perfect example of how the Arts are effectively revitalizing rural townsand changing the way we see ourselves. It is a source of civic pride and it is a renaissance.

    Movie Synopsis:

    Predator

    After a string of subpar sequels, this bloody,action-packed reboot takes the Predator fran-chise back to its testosterone-fuelled roots. Agroup of elite warriors are hunted by mem-bers of a merciless alien race known asPredators. www.rottentomatoes.com

    Movie Synopsis:

    How to Train Your

    Dragon

    Boasting dazzling ani-mation, and a script withsurprising dramaticdepth, How to TrainYour Dragon soars.

    Meet Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III,heir of the Viking chiefdom, but a boy

    with one very big problem: a hero he isnot. "How to Train Your Dragon" is theriotous story of Hiccup's quest to huntdown the fiercest dragon, bring it intosubmission, and-hopefully-pass his ini-tiation. Instead, he ends up with thesmallest, most ornery dragon - it's eventoothless! Thus begins the hi-jinx of theworld's most lovable, unlikely hero and amost reluctant "beast." Packed with ener-getic drawings and plenty of action, thisboisterous tale is just right for fantasyfans or anyone with a spirit of adventure.Based on the book by Cressida Cowell.

    pg 1 Watershed Moment

    The after hours Coffee House was a very popular event and a welcome addition to the ex-hibit. Performers came right off the floor and soon there was a multifaceted jam session ofmusicians, vocalists and instruments that swelled right on to the vibrant but reluctant end ofa satisfying evening. Everyone had a great time and went home feeling happier and richerfor having been there.

    Further acknowledgement must be given to the dedicated volunteer support staff who val-iantly turned out to put up and take down the show. The exhibit was well designed and evi-dent thought and care had been given to the displays. The result was a comfortable atmos-

    phere and a well lit presentation that made viewing the unique pieces enjoyable.

    Works selected for the traveling exhibit are currently on display at the Eastend Library.

    Luanne Armstrong

    Friday, October 22, 2010,

    7:30 p.m.

    Eastend United Church

    Luanne Armstrong MFA, Ph.D. lives on the organic farm thatwas her grandfathers on a bench along the eastern shore ofKootenay Lake, B.C. Todays technology allows her to workfrom home as an adjunct professor of Creative Writing for theUniversity of British Columbia.

    Luanne is the author of fourteen books including poetry, novelsand childrens books. She has been nominated for a variety ofawards and is a popular leader at creative writing workshopsand conferences. She has earned her living as a novelist, free-lance writer, editor and publisher. Her career required that shelive in a variety of western towns and cities, but that shorelinefarm was always the anchorage to which she returned and whichis now her hearts ease.

    Luanne grew up on this farm as have her children. Her connec-tion to the land runs deep. and is the driving theme of her 2007book Blue Valley, An Ecological Memoir.

    As the 2010 winner of the Stegner Grant for the Arts, Luanne isspending the month of October in the Stegner House. She isenjoying the opportunity to work without the usual interruptionsof farm life and is also taking advantage of the lovely fall daysto explore her familys Saskatchewan roots. Her grandfatheroriginally ranched in the Cypress Hills and then farmed in theCentral Butte district before settling on the bench aboveKootenay Lake.

    Luannes interest in human commitment to place, to sustainable

    existence on a chunk of land and to the strength of family con-nection to home should appeal to prairie people who have for-gotten less of these so important truths.
