Steeped in history, barns are an essential part of the rural
landscape. They’ve long been used for shelter, storage and production … and as a gathering place for the community. Barns evokes a feeling of comfort and sanctuary. Built during a golden age of barn construction, they're straightforward in design yet were built strong enough to last for generations ... even centuries. Every barn holds a story about courage, strength, perseverance, ingenuity and craftsmanship. Tara's latest body of work, Barnscapes, captures the essence of County life … both past and present.

Thank you to the hundreds of people who came out for our Holiday Photo in the Barn in support of Prince Edward County's "Back the Build" campaign!
We decked out our magnificent century-old barn once again for the holidays with a stunning 20-foot Christmas tree (from Skootamatta Chrismas Tree Farm in Flinton, Ontario). From November 16th to December 8th, we featured a festive seating area in front of the tree where individuals, couples, friends, family and work colleagues (and pets!) came together to pose for a |
"HOLIDAY PHOTO IN THE BARN" ... in exchange for a donation to the Prince Edward County Memorial Hospital Foundation's "BACK THE BUILD" campaign.
Established in 2020 as a safe, memory-maker event during the pandemic, "Holiday Photo in the Barn" has photographed over 2,500 visitors (+ countless pets!) and raised over $30,000 for PECMH Foundation’s Back the Build campaign to date! A special thank you to our volunteers without whom none of this would have been possible: Helen, Ed & Joe Yanch, Debbie Kingsburgh, Risa Zaleski, Liz Moran, Jim Grant, Helen Morris, Jill Lindeblom, Lise Bowden, Tom Wilkinson, Karen Wannamaker, Joanne Cooper, Oliver Wigington, Marina Moore and Brenda Wehmeier! |
