Original works by more than 20 Nova Scotian artists will be exhibited this summer at the Town Hall Arts and Cultural Centre in Liverpool’. The “Views from Here” show features images that reflect the natural world experienced on the South Shore, in all its diversity and seasons.
“The response from artists for this show is exceptional,” said Cathy Pincombe, show organizer. “‘Views from Here’ has attracted the largest number of artists we have ever exhibited in a group show. Among them are 12 who are showing their work at THACC for the first time.”
The “Views from Here” show will be displayed in THACC’s two gallery spaces. Images include original paintings in a variety of media, as well as photography and fibre art. Prints and cards by a number of the artists will also be available in the Astor Theatre’s art shop.
The “Views from Here” art show is open 11 a.m. – 4 p.m., Wednesday to Saturday, until September 10.
Explore the genre of physical comedy and learn how to make an audience laugh without using words. This workshop explores physical techniques that support comic performance, with exercises in stillness, focus, reaction, status, the inclusion of the audience and theatrical clowning. Students develop an understanding of the importance of timing in comedy…and of course, no physical comedy workshop would be complete without learning a bit of Slapstick, without getting hurt!
Mark Jaster draws on his training with Étienne Decroux and Marcel Marceau. Sabrina draws on her training in the LeCoq pedagogy with Dody DiSanto with concentration in the realm of the theatrical clown. Their complementary approaches combine to address nuts-and-bolts physical, technical and structural skills and the more esoteric issues of honesty, presence and accessibility.
The workshop will take place at 10am, prior to Pinot & Augustine’s show on the Astor stage at 3pm. For ages 8-15 it will last approximately 2 hours. Priced at $10.
HAPPENSTANCE THEATER is an award-winning, professional company committed to devising, producing and touring original, performer-created visual, poetic Theater. With the simplest means – movement, silence, theatrical clown, music, text, physical comedy and beauty – we seek to elevate the moment when the performers and audience meet, to lift the encounter beyond the daily and pedestrian into the realms of dreams, poetry, and art. Meaning is often discovered by happenstance.

Workshops run by Scot Slessor of SAS Glass.
Each participant will make two painted pieces of stained glass and learn about the history of glass and see many examples of stained, fused and casted glass.
History of glass – What is glass made of? Is there natural glass? How do we join glass pieces? What is glass paint? Painting techniques.
Activity: Removal technique – each participant will prepare a piece of glass and remove paint with sticks and brushes to create an image such as their name, flowers, an animal, a building, etc. Participants will learn to lay a base of paint and trace a design onto glass. Each participant will bring or select a design to trace.
Pieces will be fired at SAS Glass and returned the next day to the Astor for participant/parent pickup.
