Journey: A Trio Exhibit celebrates the creative diversity and artistic talent within our community, spotlighting three exceptional local artists: Kim Gwozdz, Swetlana Stang, and Arlene Rattai. Each artist brings a unique perspective and medium, offering a rich variety of visual experiences.

Kim Gwozdz, with over 40 years in art, utilizes various mediums to portray landscapes, floral scenes, and wildlife. Her involvement with the Steinbach Arts Council includes numerous exhibits and teaching roles. Kim’s work is known in local businesses and private collections across Canada and internationally.

Swetlana Stang, a self-taught artist from Germany, focuses on oil and acrylic paintings of landscapes and still lifes. Her work reflects a deep connection to nature and outdoor experiences. Swetlana has been a member of the Southeast Artists Group for ten years.

Arlene Rattai began her painting career after retirement, initially working with porcelain and later exploring watercolors, oils, and pastels. Since 1995, her work has evolved, particularly in capturing animals through pastels.

“We are thrilled to kick off the season with such a diverse and talented group of artists,” says Camila Funes-Giesbrecht Assistant Arts Instructor Coordinator at SAC. “Journey is not just an exhibit; it is a celebration of local creativity and the unique perspectives each artist brings to the table. We invite everyone to join us in experiencing this remarkable showcase.”

The opening reception will include refreshments, music, and a chance to meet the artists. The event is free and open to the public. Toonie admission is encouraged.
