Updated June 13, 2013 Website by BMD www.powellriverartists.comCelebrating Artists in Powell River the Powell River Studio Tour2012 marked the 8th and last year of the Powell River Studio Tour. Started in 2004 byAlfred Muma, a wellknown local artist, the Tour featured individual artists and galleries in 20+ locations from Lang Bay to Lund. Visitors were able to see the diversity and excellence of the art community in the Powell River region and, as an added bonus, some spectacular, natural beauty along the way.Each year the Tour was organized by a few volunteers who put in their time and effort to promote the region as an art community as well as the individual participating artists and artisans. The committee members are Alfred Muma , Richard Benson , Vi Isaac andBrenda Neal l with Lowell Morris taking responsibility for sponsorships.We like to think the Tour will be missed by the 200+ people who enjoyed it every year.In order for local artists and artisans to continue to have a venue to showcase their work, the Powell River Arts Council chose to work with Coast Cultural Alliance , a nonprofit organization that sponsors the Sunshine Coast Art Crawl.

The format for the latter will alternate between reading aloud in small groups in some sessions, followed by others in which you'll give and get a more detailed written response to work circulated between sessions. Participants will gain confidence in their writing skills; and get a sense of reader response. The program is designed to help those in process with writing, who want a tune up in some of the key areas of writing craft and some feedback on their work. You should be prepared to do some writing between classes and to give time to thoughtful written reviews of work submitted by others within groups of four to six people. These sessions may continue in the bi-­-monthly format in winter 2015.
