40 THE OAKVILLE BEAVER Friday, October 1, 1999 V New arts centre at Sheridan Annie Smith Photo by Peter C. McCusker The opening of Sheridan's new Annie Smith Arts Centre was cele­ brated on Tuesday with special grand opening ceremonies at noon in the new arts and art history facility. The Annie Smith Arts Centre, with its 10,000-square-feet of working space, will house the stu­ dio component of the innovative Art and Art History joint program between Sheridan and the Univer­ sity of Toronto's Mississauga cam­ pus program. This studio accom­ modates students working in draw­ ing, painting, and 3-D materials. In addition to woodworking facilities, the centre houses 60 indi­ vidual work stations for use by art (See 'Studio' on page 42) Valuable art needs valuable fram ing THE BIG TICKET o n s a le n o w ! (Continued from page 37) to do it," he says, adding, "If it's just a poster that you can buy for a dime a dozen, the process used is not so critical. But if it's anything that's of value - sentimental or monetary, it should be done in the best preservation quality frame available." As a member of the Pro­ fessional Picture Framers Association, DeCarli says he is always up-to-date on new techniques, plus he takes courses on a regular basis to further update his knowl­ edge. "I just took a course on the latest technique in quality museum framing," he says. The former civil engineer says he's always been interested in art and in working with his hands, so one day he just decided to get out of the rat race and do something art related. "When I was young and making choices between engineering and architecture, I always had that bent. I was always more interested in "When you're putting together a framing package, it has to hold together like ary other structure." the design aspect," says the 60-year-old Oakville resident, explaining that engineering and framing are not all together unrelated. "When you're putting together a framing package, it has to hold together like any other structure. I'm detail orient­ ed. Doing things right is very important." And he's ready to do things right for his cus­ tomers and the United Way this month. "If you have something at home that you consider valuable for what­ ever reason, we will do an evaluation of the piece. We will look at it and will advise you (about framing) at no cost," he says. "Bring it in in October and benefit the United Way as well...Hopefully by the end of the month I can give a nice cheque to the Unit­ ed Way." " And if this campaign is successful, the entre­ preneur says he'll do it again, perhaps even make it an annual event.
