'Each artist is committed to the group and to bring a greater awareness of the necessity of art within our everyday world. We want to bring Art back to the people where it belongs and to do this we need to work in collaboration and with the support of community members who value the role art plays in our society.'

    'We couldn't be happier with our collaboration,' continues Michel Garnier, General Manager of Le Grand Lodge. 'The mix of the old barn, the log structure of the hotel and the original art pieces, creates a stunning contrast of beauty and richness. There is an incredible wealth of talent in the region beyond what I could have imagined. Not only are we lucky to have them here at the Grand Lodge, but I am proud to showcase their works.'
