servers or punch Herald photo Halton mils Arts By DAY Herald Special Last weekend I attended the Credit Valley Artisans Christmas Exhibition and Sale As always the Cottage had been transformed over night with the wonderful sights and Smells of the seasons What the consumer forgets when attending events like this one is the hours of time given by volunteers to set up such an activity So often it Is only a handful of people who take on the responsibility to promote local amateur talent The advertising the organizing the display or objects which Is an art in itself all require lime energy and enthusiasm In most coses these volunteers are artists themselves who are donating precious working hours to stimulate the arts In our community Pause for a moment the next time you attend such an arts event to appreciate the works themselves From the smallest pottery candlestick to a colourful stained glass bird to a beautiful woven shawl all are the result of training talent Imagination and plain hard work May I extend a thank you to all the artists and the volunteers of the arts and crafts sales over the past couple of months who have helped once again to promote the visual arts and for being a part of the cultural fabric of our community ARTISTIC NOTES Effective Business Investment in the Arts Is the topic of a special seminar with Arnold president and chief executive officer of the
