Fran Dogterom and I put together an exhibit in Lethbridge of our recent crafting collaboration. It is a sample of some of the things we made and a chance to share it with the community. If you are in town, come have a look!

Early in 2020 I was visiting my Aunt Fran Dogterom in Taber, a few months after my mother passed away. Muriel (Zasadny) and Fran were great friends and the death was a hard time for many of our family members. 
We were discussing our creative activities, that being Fran’s quilting and my painting projects.  In passing, I mentioned someone I know was making homemade cards for seniors during the Covid lockdowns. My aunt told me I would be inheriting her vast collection of art supplies and we could begin using them to make cards too.
For the next year, we met on Friday afternoons to create cards. We made dozens of cards using simple patterns and lots of inspiration.  We gave away about 120 cards to the seniors and many others to friends and family. This collections shows a variety of the cards we made, with the addition of more complex cards Fran created in workshops. 
Card making engages the imagination and can be as simple or as complex as one wishes, from basic collages to elaborate pop ups. They can be made with recycled materials such as used wrapping paper or the finest Japanese papers. While this is not “serious art”, there is value in stretching the imagination. Everyone has the potential to create, some may be primitive or sophisticated. It is a project that is relaxing for the mind and soul. I’m grateful to have this time with my aunt and look forward to starting the next batch!
I would like to sincerely thank the Yates, Allied Arts Council of Lethbridge and Casa Gallery for the opportunity to share this with the community.
