Alley Ways show
The art show Alley Ways was a great success. Together with Norm Chodirker, with whom Jeanne as artists-volunteer works in the Art Room at Coast Mental Health Resource Centre, she put a show together with pieces from her series Touched. The exhibition attracted lots of visitors and got coverage both in print and through broadcasting.
Jeanne is still working on this series and it is to be expected that more pieces under the same theme are coming out of her studio the coming months.
