A full summer of smaller shows this summer. I went to the "Art in Park Allen" event, the Bison Festival, and just last weekend was the Art Society of Strathcona County's Fall Show. I have had my most successful summer yet, and am so pleased to have seen a few repeat customers come back and either stop and say hi! or even buy another soapstone piece! Just received a new shipment of rock from Gian Carlo in BC so I'll be excited toget started on some more creations!
So excited to be going to the Blueberry Bluegrass Festival this weekend , Great music and art!! Such fun! Check out the line up and join us in Stony Plain in the Heritage Park.

Have a couple of shows lined up this year already. Decided not to do the "Make it Show" this spring. Didn't get a lot of new pieces done over the winter so am concentrating on the spring and summer shows.
Last Christmas show for Kay this year. All the best remaining soapstone pieces will be there. Come see may talented artists and support your local Ft.Sask. business council . Many great artists will be there.
Come see all the wonderful "Makies" and their products. Everything is hand made.... clothing, jewelry, food, art, decor and everything else you can think of! Kay will have 2 tables of soapstone and stone sculpture to choose from for your Christmas gifts, or for a gift to yourself!
