JONATHON LINKS UP WITH THE INNUIT GALLERY!

November 19th is the opening of this years Jamie Jardine exhibition. This is going to be an incredible show. Jamie went to Nunavut in July and spent ten days in Iqaluit and this show is a result of his travels. Jamie was blown away with the scenery and the people.  An exciting aspect of this exhibition is  our partnership with THE INNUIT  GALLERY for this event. THE INNUIT GALLERY, now in their 27th year, has arranged for a wonderful collection of carvings to be part of this show titled "Form and Vision. Opening night will be our first JOINT VENTURE EXHIBITION. The opening will be at both our gallery and theirs. Fortunately their gallery is only around the corner.

Make sure you connect with us if you want an invitation to Opening Night.  Also watch for the premier issue of BEAT London's latest art magazine featuring Jamie Jardine's arctic experience.

BARBIE COMING TO JONATHONS!!!!!

Believe it or not we are having a Barbie Birthday Bash! Hard to believe? I must admit that as I look at the 100's of Barbies that have been descending on the gallery it a little surreal. I keep telling myselfd that it is all for a good cause and it is! Investing in Children operates a nutrition programme within the school system. This is an important program that helps to ensure that kids eat. This event is to raise money to help them do just that.

Thursday October 29th the dolls, all in their finery, will be available for purchase. Prices start at $15 and climb. There are dolls in every imaginable outfit. Many are in designer dresses and there are also Ken dolls to accompany them. There are Gone with the Wind, Cher, Elvis and many others. Pick an event and there is a doll to go with it. The doll collection belongs to Diane Thompson of Scots Corner Pub and she is donating 15% of the purchase price to INVESTING IN CHILDREN.
