Sad to be missing this. It sounds like it would be a fun exhibit to explore. Way to get creative Confed Centre! I hope this brings in a lot of new people to the gallery!
A new exhibition at the Art Gallery at the Confederation Centre of the Arts, focusing on beer and hockey, will see the gallery converted into an actual sports bar.
Gallery curator Pan Wendt said the conversion of the traditional art space of the entrance gallery will coincide with Hockey Day in Canada on P.E.I.
"Very soon it will be bar stools and an actual bar," said Wendt.
"There will be big screens, flashy signs and all the things you would associate with a sports bar. Except that kind of mixed in among the usual stuff that would be in a bar there will be art works that relate to both hockey and beer."
During the first week of the exhibit, from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m., the exhibit will be a legitimate bar, with happy hour drinks served. The show will run from Feb. 4 to April 15.
So I'm glad to be home, but I'd much rather have walked to work in Charlottetown than Ottawa just now…
Christmas Eve dinner is an annual tradition started 6 or more years ago when our longtime neighbours moved across town. They come over for steak and caesar salad every Christmas Eve. One of our current neighbours and one of my Dad's sisters join us for a very lovely evening.
With the fire roaring, and snow blanketing the earth, I just want to wish anyone reading this blog a very Merry Christmas, and a safe and happy New Year!Looks like wishes do come true! It had better not warm up between now and the 25th!
And now that it is I am enjoying some rum and eggnog with friends. Ahh, the holidays :)

My view at the MacOdrum Library. The beautiful sky, with the reflection of the fluorescent lights in the window... sigh.
Somehow, this pad:
