Winter in the Bay

Art show and sale

From February 2 to February 29, 2024, art by members of the Peggy’s Cove Area Art Society will be on display at the Community Enterprise Centre, the Tantallon Public Library, and the CUA – Tantallon Branch.

The art is there to enjoy, but also to serve as inspiration for community members’ writing pieces. In addition to being available to view in person, art is also displayed on Facebook. Most of the art is available to purchase, and each of the three locations has a price list and contact information should you wish to buy.

Writing tips from a pro

Sometimes the empty page or the blank screen can paralyze us. So here’s some advice from that wonderful Newfoundland writer and now Halifax resident Donna Morrissey: “Don’t agonize about or over-think the process of writing. Just get started. Get the story out.”

Writing examples

Writing examples with illustrating works from the 2021 Winter in the Bay art show. Examples include non-fiction story “Feeding a Family in the Depression” by Linda Mosher with accompanying painting “Frozen Lake” by Mary Lynn Mackay, and fiction story “Entertaining Angels” by Alanna Dunne with accompanying painting “Waiting in the Snow” by Karen Llewellyn.
