Coffee and Art: A Perfect Combination

Just writing that title makes me crave a visit to a certain cafe in a certain village on the Northumberland Strait.
In tomorrow's issue of The Oxford Journal, watch for an article on a new art gallery that's opened in downtown Pugwash. Another brilliant idea from Norene Smiley, who co-owns the delightful Chatterbox Cafe with her (equally delightful) husband Greg.
The Pop-Up Art Space is filling a space adjacent to the cafe that was recently vacated by a gift store. Instead of leaving the large room empty until it is rented, Norene, who is a painter, figured out a great way to make use of the store and highlight artists at the same time.
Diane Burnham and Isaac Fresia are two local artists who are featured for the month of June at the art gallery on Durham Street in Pugwash.
