ARTISSIMA 2023

The success of the first ARTISSIMA show has prompted us to do it again next year! I’m really happy to be one of the organizers and have to thank my organizing partner, Leeane Moussa, the artists, and everyone who participated and attended the show.

The New Art Festival only accepts original, one-of-a-kind artwork. All artworks must be handmade by the exhibiting artists and are juried relative to the artistic merit, professionalism, integrity, craftsmanship, and originality, the artist’s statement, and bio submitted. Once again hundreds and hundreds of people from near and far enjoyed two beautiful days of lovely weather and extraordinary art and crafts.

This was a terrific weekend that brought out neighbours and visitors from all around Ontario and Quebec, from Montreal to Toronto and Kingston to Guelph, and probably many other places. This event was cathartic for me in that I not only met lots of new people, but also reconnected with many old friends and acquaintances not seen since March 2020.
