They have invited other artists who share their love for the cat to participate in this exhibition. Those artists are: Theresa Dinsmore, Carolyn Endacott, Gisèle Grenier, Emma Moumblow Hewitson, Heather Horton, Amanda McKinney, Joan Moumblow, Cathy Peng, Patricia Robertson, Lauren Sehdev, Laurie Woods and James Wylie.

Their artist statement:

The cat, what can one day about this glorious creature?
With its majestic form, formidable meow, rhythmic purr, and its uncanny ability to hear a can of tuna being opened from three rooms away?
One cannot help but fall madly in love with such a glorious creature!

Therefore, and quite happily, we as avid cat fanciers have created an homage exhibition consisting of paintings, drawings, jewelry, transfer art and sculptures to express our love for the cat.

There will also be a silent art auction, the proceeds of which will help raise funds for a local Hamiltonian organization, Animal Welfare Association, which rescues cats and the occasional dog. For more information on AWA, please visit their site http://www.awa.xux.net/.

The Silent Art Auction ends on Thursday March 25th.

Gallery Hours:
Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday
