Northern Ontario artisans will be showcased in a touring exhibition that's kicking off at the Fort Frances Museum Thursday.
Sarah Marusyk, a spokesperson for the Ontario Crafts Council, says it's an effort to bring more awareness to the region's artists and crafters.
"Basically this show features 44 pieces of craft that reflects the diversity and quality of work that's being created in northern Ontario," says Marusyk. "The exhibition is part of the Ontario Crafts Council's project called 'Growing Ontario Craft Community North."
The event also features a piece by local potter Mara Henteleff who will be on hand to talk her work.
