Artist's talk: Sunday, November 11 at 2 pm
Open to the Public - Free to Attend
This series of large panorama landscapes captures landforms that surround a very distinct part of Nova Scotia.
Several contain remnants - some current, some far past their original usefulness - of early Acadian/Planter settlement in the Wolfville area.
The views would be for the most part easily recognized by anyone who passed through the area during the past 300 years.

Winter Solstice
A ViewPoint Members' show
December 6-30, 2018
Opening Reception: Thursday, December 6, 6-8pm
Artist's Talk: Sunday, December 17, 2pm
The Winter Solstice occurs on the longest night / shortest day of the year, the day when the “sun stands still” in the sky. This event deeply affects our psyche; it has been marked and celebrated since Neolithic times. The feeling of hope inspired by the return of light confirms the promises the new life spring will bring. This year, ViewPoint Gallery is celebrating the solstice with an exhibition.
In this exhibition seven artists will be showing work that expresses this return to light and the sense of hope that it brings. Thus many different views of the meaning of Solstice emerge. Images range from the celebration of the winter landscape to the quality of winter's light.
Participating artists are: Eric Boutilier-Brown, Ted Coldwell, Angie Creaser, Kathleen Flanagan, Doug van Hemessen, Jennifer Modigliani, and Roxanne Smith.

Rosemary Miklitsch, Canada
Artist's Biography
Rosemary Miklitsch is an emerging artist, focusing on landscape and nature photography. Rosemary was born in Niagara Falls, NY and currently lives and works in Oakville, Ontario and Santa Monica, California. She has had images exhibited in Canada, Ireland, Sicily and the USA.
Artist's Statement
For me, photography is an organic and spontaneous pursuit, searching for the marvelous in the mundane. It's meditative and requires being present in the moment, as I patiently wait for my subject to be illuminated. It's finding beauty in everyday things. Photography helps me find balance in life. Sometimes I focus on the big picture - a vast landscape. Other days, I am moved by the details of the world around me.
