Mature Content will be there to provide some great music, and who can resist that scrumptious strawberry shortcake served up in the beautiful gardens? All this for just five dollars admission! Don't forget you lawn chair though.<br /><br />Inside the Coach House the artists are pumped to show off their latest works. Admission to the exhibit itself is always free. We'd love it if you find something you can't resist purchasing. but we really just want to meet you and show you our latest creations!<br /><br />All this happens from 1pm to 4pm on Sunday June 28th. The gallery exhibit itself, however, will actually open on Saturday June 27th and run Saturdays and Sundays throughout the summer from 10 am to 4 pm.<br /><br />Two of our exhibiting artists were part of Art in the City in Brockville this past weekend. Claudia Deskin, gallery coordinator, paints brilliantly and also lends a hand to use pyrography to decorate her husband Eric's turned wooden platters. Eric Deskin, turns wooden bowls and platters, but it is his segmented bowls assembled from exotic woods that are a must see.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_OJhG-04U_4A/Sj6N7hXMlLI/AAAAAAAAAAs/srCLYASSoBw/s1600-h/eric+and+claudia1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_OJhG-04U_4A/Sj6N7hXMlLI/AAAAAAAAAAs/srCLYASSoBw/s320/eric+and+claudia1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5349869461070189746" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_OJhG-04U_4A/Sj6N7CGLnrI/AAAAAAAAAAk/wZ57mG0Ab30/s1600-h/eric+3.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_OJhG-04U_4A/Sj6N7CGLnrI/AAAAAAAAAAk/wZ57mG0Ab30/s320/eric+3.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5349869452677324466" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_OJhG-04U_4A/Sj6N648mbDI/AAAAAAAAAAc/IjNJDoQoqgE/s1600-h/eric+2.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_OJhG-04U_4A/Sj6N648mbDI/AAAAAAAAAAc/IjNJDoQoqgE/s320/eric+2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5349869450221218866" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_OJhG-04U_4A/Sj6N6twYn3I/AAAAAAAAAAU/je7CMIentTU/s1600-h/eric+1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_OJhG-04U_4A/Sj6N6twYn3I/AAAAAAAAAAU/je7CMIentTU/s320/eric+1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5349869447217192818" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_OJhG-04U_4A/Sj6NfxWwMHI/AAAAAAAAAAM/lifN12knKko/s1600-h/claudia+1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_OJhG-04U_4A/Sj6NfxWwMHI/AAAAAAAAAAM/lifN12knKko/s320/claudia+1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5349868984326959218" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Eric and another artist, Kit Vincent (fibre artist), will be live on the A Channel morning news program on Tuesday June 23rd at 9: 2<span class="f">5 am.

This two-storey fieldstone house, which sits on an acre of land, was used as a farmhouse, a doctor’s office and home and a tavern/hotel. Purchased by the township in 2005, it was renovated for use as a museum, research centre, meeting place and display centre for the arts. The grounds contain a gazebo, a heritage vegetable garden and flower beds.<br /></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">The Mallory Coach House is located in the heart of Mallorytown,</span></span><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:130%;"><br />1523 Cty Road #2<br />Mallorytown</span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2132705465295754051-3022072865458462126?l=stoneandmortar.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Thousand Islands Artshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18044906244731214791noreply@blogger.com1
