Art in the Park connects craftspeople with public
Art takes all kinds of different forms, and can take space in all sorts of different places, even provincial parks.
Yesterday, several artists and craftspeople shared their handiwork at Art in the Park at the Greig Lake visitors centre.
There was an array for the upwards of 150 attendees to take in, including woodworking, baking, jewellery, paintings, prints, dream catchers, photographs, clothing, crafts, beauty products, wool and yarn. There were also demonstrations of various crafts.
Kara Perpelitz of Goodsoil was a vendor at the event. As a master spinner and fibre artist, she works primarily with wool and silk to create various items such as yarn, needle felt paintings, scarves and other wearables. She became a master spinner through a six-year course at Olds College in Alberta but got her start in the art by chance.
