Kashuby i Kaszuby -
Reunited
Aug 1 - 24
Opening: Friday Aug 1, 7-9pm
Inspired by the history of the Kashub people,
Fine art photographer Jim Blomfield decided to photograph both
Kaszubys in the same way. He stayed in both Kaszub regions (Poland
and Canada) for extended periods of time driving the back roads
to find scenes, people, and objects of interest, interacting with
the people when situations arose. This exhibit is a photographic
collection of those impressions and experiences. The exhibit is
presented in conjunction with the 150th anniversary of the arrival
in Canada of the first Kashub settlers.
