Book shelves

Scroll Writing and Calligraphy

Come and see scroll writing and calligraphy by Lorraine Fork. There will be a combination of pictures, cartoons and writing. This special blend of art is what Lorraine learned from her father. She used to dream about being an artist. Now, she has time to do art. She is also interested in learning acrylic painting from other artists. Lorraine is back home in Wetaskiwin and she likes our friendly people and our efficient healthcare system. Some of her friends are in senior homes and life changes all the time. She heard about Alberta Arts Days when she visited the library.
