Road work at Princess and Victoria:  new waterlines are being put in, which will cause some disruption.  In the next little while, the intersection of Princess and Victoria may be closed. You can still access our little parking lot by coming down Victoria from Concession.  At some point over the next few weeks, the entrance to our parking lot will be closed for a day or two, but will then be accessible again.  It's going to be a mess, but we'll get through it!
Starting October 2nd in the WAG: exhibition by members of the Organization of Kingston Women Artists. Reception on Sunday Oct. 6, 2 - 4 p.m.
