The Huronia Foundation for the Arts joined forces with the Midland BIA for the 2nd Annual ArtWalk street festival. King Street in downtown Midland was centre stage for ArtWalk 2010. Saturday August 14th and Sunday August 15th saw a bigger and better festival, as the ArtWalk grew to become a two day event. Last year an estimated two thousand people participated in ArtWalk. “This year we are surpassed last year’s numbers” said Gord McKay, Chair, Huronia Foundation for the Arts. ArtWalk gave the community a chance to enjoy the arts as well as some of Midland’s most unique shops. “Many of the downtown merchants were out on the street with unique gifts and food for young and old” said Karianne Copeland, Chair Midland BIA. “It was a chance for everyone to come downtown and see Midland’s shopping district at its best.” ArtWalk featured a feast of local artists and crafts. Artists were juried so the best in painting, metalwork and sculpture were on display. A full day musical event took place on Saturday where visitors were entertained by the likes of Marc Hanson, Old Habits and local favorites Claude et Lucie Charlebois. Special art activities for the family included children’s “street painting”, a public participation mural, buskers and art demonstrations.
Mary Pat Kelly, author, documentary film maker, former nun takes the reader on a memorable journey in her novel, “Galway Bay” a new favorite of the Daily Grommet team. If you ever wondered what it was like to live through the Irish Famine, travel overseas in a overcrowded ship, and make your mark in America, as her relatives did, you’ll love this book. By the end, you will no doubt have great respect for these brave families and that’s no blarney.
WATCH MORE: ning.it —- Over 30 years ago, God gave three men a vision — Loren Cunningham, Founder of YWAM (Youth With A Mission) Bill Bright, Founder of Campus Crusade Francis Schaeffer, Theologian & Founder of L’Abri THE VISION was a description on how to successfully advance the Kingdom of God on earth in a Way that would dramatically and positively impact NATIONS and the CULTURES within them in this generation, in order to BENEFIT MANKIND (spirit, soul & body) the Way their Creator GOD has always intended since the Beginning. The specific Wisdom given in all the visions involved dynamically influencing seven (7) major societal spheres, or “cultural mind molders” — symbolically referred to as “mountains” in our generation. Using a “7-Mountain” strategy (versus just one “religious mountain”), not only effectively impacts every strata of society, but each individual can find their TRUE divine destiny by pursuing God’s Way to function in their own unique gifts, callings, passions and purposes within the vast multiplicity of productive roles available to us in our world today — OTHER THAN WITHIN ONLY THE RELIGIOUS SPHERE. _____________________________________________________ For related resources, visit your friends at The Kingdom Renaissance Community. www.1KINGDOM.me .
