Art Shows 2008


Town Crier

Rod will appear next August 16 and 17 at Paint the Town in Annapolis Royal.

The first of these took place in August 1996, with 25 artists coming to paint on site around the historic town of Annapolis Royal. Annapolis Royal was delighted to welcome; sculptures, carvers, photographers and textile artists to our ever-expanding cornucopia of mediums. In 2007 no less than 84 artists and craftspeople came to Annapolis Royal to participate.

Dry paintings completed in the studio will be offered for  sale along with on-the-spot plein air efforts of a much more summary nature. Silent auctions are held at the Legion Hall during this two-day event

Mahone Bay

Rod Mackay will be presenting new local paintings at the Mahone Bay Nursing Home Mini Gallery from June 30 until July 25, 2008.  Entry is indicated by a sign on the front lawn.

This show and sale is partly in support of the Home and during July a commission will paid for any painting sold there, or on the web, or through my studio.

Mahone Nursing Home is a long term care facility licensed by the Nova Scotia Department of Health to provide nursing and personal care to eligible individuals.

Located in the Town of Mahone Bay, Mahone Nursing Home’s roots are deep seated in this beautiful town. Built over 100 years ago, the original building was operated as the Royal Hotel. After closing the hotel, the building was opened as a nursing home in 1965. In the early 1980’s the home was purchased by it’s current owner, MacLeod Group, a Nova Scotia based company with headquarters in Antigonish. MacLeod Group operates five nursing homes in the province. After renovations in the early 1990’s, Mahone Nursing Home is now home to 57 residents.
