WINNIPEG, Man.—Acrylic and water color paintings by Winnipeg artists Paul Toews and Lily Lim will be exhibited at the Garry Street Gallery beginning Wednesday, May 28. The collection, “Reflections of a Prairie Province,” highlights Manitoba’s beauty and Winnipeg’s beautiful parks and surrounding scenery. The exhibition will run through June 20.
The Garry Street Gallery is located at 57-81 Garry St. in Fort Garry Place Mall. An opening reception will take place Wednesday from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m.
“People will see local landmarks and out-of-the-way places captured from a fresh perspective,” said gallery owner Val Romanow. “Lockport Island, Assiniboine Park, Oak Hammock Marsh, the Red River, Whiteshell Lake and many other landmark locations are represented.”
