Arteast’s 25th Anniversary Picnic
August
22nd from 10am to 2pm Arteast will hold
our very first Family and Friends Picnic
at Petrie Island, situated at picnic
area 4. Just bring your lunches/snacks, come with your kids,
grandchildren, spouse and let’s celebrate our 25th. We will have
activities for the kids. Also members can have fun, maybe can do some
Plein air painting.
Picnic
area: The picnic area is located to the west of the main beach area.
It contains a number of mature trees that provide welcome shade.
There is also a beach suitable for small children.
Parking:
Parking costs $2 for 5 hours.
Petrie
Island has some restriction : Users of the picnic area are
reminded: 9 pm curfew, no dogs on the island, no alcohol, clean up
afterwards, don’t feed those cute looking animals, don’t catch
the frogs or turtles, don’t pick the nice flowers. If you want to
cook food, bring your own gas barbeque — no charcoal please because
there is no place to safely dispose of the coals.
See
you at the Picnic. No Rain date Contact person: Josie

La
prochaine activité sera le pique-nique familial qui aura lieu
à l'île Petrie, samedi le 22 août de 10h à 14h.
Venez partager cette belle journée avec vos collègues, vos enfants,
vos petit enfants, votre époux/se. Veuillez bien apporter votre
diner.
Nous
aurons des activités artistiques pour les petits, et peut-être les
plus grands pourront faire de la peinture plein air.
La zone
de pique-nique est située à l'ouest de la zone de la plage
principale. Elle contient un certain nombre d'arbres matures qui
offrent de l’ombre. Il y a aussi une plage pour les petits enfants.
Stationnement
: Le coût est de $2.00 pour 5 hrs.
Les
restrictions à l’île Pétrie : Les utilisateurs de la zone de
pique-nique n'ont pas le droit de faire des feux, d'apporter leurs
chiens ou d'apporter de l'alcool. S.V.P. bien ramasser et nettoyer
après l'activité, ne nourrissez pas les mignons animaux, n'attrapez
pas les grenouilles ou les tortues et ne ramassez pas les belles
fleurs. Si vous voulez faire cuire de la
nourriture, apportez votre propre barbecue à gaz - pas de charbon
s'il vous plaît, car il n'y a aucun endroit où le jeter en
sécurité.

Communiqué
Arteast's
hard-copy, quarterly newsletter—Communiqué—is popular with our
members, but did you know that it is also available on our Web site
at http://arteastottawa.com/newsletter.php? A notification when a new
issue is released is communicated via the weekly Arteast Digest.
Posting of the Web version may be viewed in full dazzling colour, at
least two weeks before the print version (black and white) is
delivered by Canada Post. With rising postal costs, some members
have requested that they be removed from the mailing list for the
printed copy. Other advantages of going with the online Communiqué
are:
-
reduces printing and envelope costs;
- makes
Arteast more "green";
- no
more hunting for misplaced issues (Arteast's Web site has the current
and all back issues).
Printed
copies will be available at our monthly Grow With Art meetings and
the Promenade Arteast gallery at the Shenkman Arts Centre. If you
prefer to read the newsletter online, please e-mail us at
editor@arteastottawa.com to have your name removed from the
newsletter mailing list.
La
copie imprimée du trimestriel d’Arteast – Communiqué – est
populaire auprès de ses membres, mais saviez-vous qu’il est aussi
disponible sur le site Web http://arteastottawa.com/newsletter.php
? Lors de sa publication, une notice paraît dans l’hebdomadaire
Arteast Digest. Sur le Web il peut être lu et vu en couleurs deux
semaines avant la version imprimée ( noir et blanc) postée par
Poste Canada. Compte tenu du coût postal croissant plusieurs membres
ont enlevé leur nom pour l’envoi postal - vers le Web. Il y a
d’ailleurs d’autres avantages du Communiqué en ligne tels que :
-
réduire les coûts de l’imprimé et de l’enveloppe;
-
Arteast plus ‘vert’;
-
ne plus être à la recherche du numéro manquant (le Web d’Arteast
conserve le numéro courant et les anciens numéros).
Des
copies imprimées seront disponibles à la réunion mensuelle L’Art
en herbe et à la galerie Promenade Arteast au Centre Shenkman. Si
vous préférez lire le Communiqué en ligne, s.v.p. contactez :
editor@arteastottawa.com
afin d’enlever votre nom de la liste d’envoi postal.
