The September exhibit in the Joyner Gallery of the Niagara Pumphouse Arts Centre is dedicated to showcasing the mixed media collage, paintings and sculptures of Niagara-on-the-Lake artist Ronald Boaks.
Adorning the walls of the gallery are Ronald Boaks' art pieces. The artworks are a unique assemblage of various artistic mediums, including drawings, monoprints, paintings, and still life photographs. These diverse elements have been created and collected by Ronald Boaks over the course of the last thirty years, providing viewers with a retrospective look at the evolution of his creative expression over the years.
Visitors to the gallery will have the opportunity to explore not only the artist's captivating mixed media collages but also his intriguing sculptures. These sculptures are crafted using a combination of wood, steel, and stone, resulting in dynamic and thought-provoking three-dimensional pieces.
Join us on Sunday, Sept 3rd from 2:00-4:00 pm for an opening reception and an opportunity to meet Ronald Boaks in person. Admire the paintings over nibbles and refreshments with other art appreciators. Remarks at approximately 2:30 p.m.

We are proud of our heritage and have two museums open for viewing and many of the stops are also in century buildings and homesteads. Sat evening, Ottawa Valley Farm to Fork is hosting a farm to fork dinner (ticketed event) in their lovingly restored heritage barn. We are family friendly not only for visitors but also for our participants. There are 6 creative families exhibiting! The tour is bicycle friendly. If you are cycling the tour, participants will deliver large purchases up to 50 kms or if you are parking and cycling we can stay open after hours so you can pick up your large pieces or arrange to drop to your car at the end of the tour. We are environmentally conscious and have kept the driving time (and gas) to a minimum. If you start in Eganville (My Country Home) and go to every stop, finishing at Ottawa Valley Farm to Fork, it is a total of 72kms/63 mins.
Please bring cash or cheques as not all vendors take debit or credit cards
There will be handouts with a map and list of all participants available at every stop as there are portions of the tour that have limited access to internet.

Vocalist Sherri Harding emerges from the background onto centre stage with her first original album - A MILLION PIECES, that was released on March 25, 2023. Recorded in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, where some of her heroes like Aretha Franklin and Etta James recorded before her, the album is a diverse mix of hook-laden rock and up-tempo, horn-infused pop, that would make her idols proud.
For this special performance, Sherri has assembled a powerhouse band with some of Ottawa’s finest musicians and singers, including several members of the Cooper Brothers. Sherri will play her new album in its entirety as well as some classics inspired by her Muscle Shoals experience.
