MEAL PREP & ORGANIZATION!    Meal prep is all about having the foods you want to be eating ready for you and being organized for the week. It’s the best moment when you open up your fridge and it’s full of foods that are ready to be eaten throughout the week!   Have high intentions of meal prepping for the week but don’t like how much time it takes?! Tupperware has the tools to help you save that time in the kitchen. We also have the tools to store your foods so you’re ready for the week! We will be demonstrating some products to show you how Tupperware plays a huge roll in meal prep!   SPECIAL GUEST — We very excited to announce that we have a very special guest, Miria Lovlin, who sharing her information on meal prep and how she sets her weeks up for success! A busy mom of two who works from home knows what it takes to be set for the week.    If you need to step up your meal prep and organization game, you will want to join us  on Monday, January 20th  for an evening of education. You will leave with some tangible and tactical items and information to set you up for success with meal prep and being organized.    Miria and I believe that a little bit of planning is the first step to getting the right foods into your body.    We hope to see you  on Monday, January 20th at 7PM at Safety City, 10318 - 92 Street, Grande Prairie .     USE THIS LINK TO REGISTER -->  https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/meal-prep-organization-tickets-88576798589

The Art Gallery of Grande Prairie will have a new exhibition soon, ‘Curbside Museum’ by Enza Apa.  “Curbside Museum is a display that shelters and maintains a collection of objects. A museum, by definition, cares for, studies, and displays objects that have artistic, historical, scientific, or cultural value. Museums brings us visionary glimpses of the past, but also introduce us to objects of art and culture that we may not normally have a chance to see and experience. They are windows into the possibilities for inquiry that spark both joy and curiosity.” When: January 22nd - March 29th, 2020  Where:  Art Gallery of Grande Prairie  Web:  https://aggp.ca/exhibitions/curbside-museum/ (There is no opening reception for this one)

We have moved! Our Grande Prairie gallery has moved 2.5 blocks west on 100 Ave. We are now in the NW corner of 214 Place 9909 102 Street.  Access the new gallery through either the south or west doors lobby doors. Our door is next to the elevators in the North taller tower.   The new space is much brighter with amazing exposure to drive-by traffic on the corner of 100 ave and 102 street.  This space takes our favorite elements of the first gallery and brings them over to the new space. It also presented an opportunity to improve the gallery experience.  For example our pottery area was dark and small, now we have a night and day difference with 4 large floor to ceiling windows and have amazing built-in lighting.  We still have custom framing, that hasn’t changed. We also feel the parking is much better with a parking lot, directly behind the building and in metered parking on all 3 streets that run along the building.  For those not familiar, 214 Place is Grande Prairie’s tallest office tower and the workplace of roughly 400 people. For those around Grande Prairie a long time, we are in the former TD space, yes we now keep the art in the actual vault.  Very exciting times for us as we kick off a new year and a new decade in a new home as we evolve and improve on what we have built.  All the best in 2020.
