730 Lawson Street, Kelowna, BC.
Statement of Significance:
Description of Historic Place:
The Raymer House is a one and one-half storey wood-frame, Edwardian era vernacular residence, with Queen Anne Revival references. It is located mid-block on the north side of Lawson Avenue in Kelowna's residential North End neighbourhood.
Heritage Value:
Built in 1905, the Raymer House is a significant example of Edwardian era vernacular architecture. The design references the waning Queen Anne Revival style with its wraparound verandah and its decoratively shingled upper gable. Comfortable but modest, this house exemplifies the lifestyle of Kelowna's middle class residents during the early years of the twentieth century.
The Raymer House is of historical significance for its association with Harry Raymer, a prominent local citizen. Raymer, born in Ontario, came to Kelowna in 1892 and established himself as one of the most prominent local contractors, building many of Kelowna's early schools, banks, residences and Knox Presbyterian Church. He was a well-known member of the community, and served as Kelowna's first Mayor from 1905-06, Alderman, Justice of the Peace, and as a member of the Police Commission and Licensing Board; Raymer Street was named in his honour. This house was built at the time that the city was established and Raymer was Mayor, representing the maturation of the community at an early stage in its development.

Ballyer Trad Hub Mission Statement
The Ballyer Trad Hub is an open space dedicated to creating awareness of the connection between traditional music and Ballyfermot and the fun and education which comes from music learning.
The Trad Hub aims to be a welcoming and encouraging environment for people of all ages, inviting each individual to come along and find out about the music and also to try out the musical instruments on display. Two of the major obstacles facing people who would like to learn an instrument, are 1. financial and 2. self-doubt; the Trad Hub aims to break down these and other barriers in a bid to create that vital initial access point to musical instruments for anybody with an interest. There will be free, informal lessons given by the Trad Hub supervisor on the instruments at the Trad Hub. Of course, participants do not have to intent on committing to learning an instrument, they might just want to grasp the opportunity to hold a fiddle or a banjo for the first time in their lives. All interest is welcome and encouraged.
The Hub will also provide information, in Irish and English, on traditional music in the area, both at present and historically, as well as information on concerts, sessions, events and lessons in the area. It is planned that the Trad Hub will commence on Saturdays, 11-1pm, at Ballyfermot Library.
Functions of the Ballyer Trad Hub
Instrument Try-out Zone
It is the aim of the Trad Hub to provide a variety of musical instruments on display for people to pursue and try out at their leisure.

for some information compiled so far, on musicians from the area who have played traditional music.
Not quite sure what that statement is, though... She's wearing Mommy's crocs, a lovely pink sun hat (a gift from Milli) and has an old pair of slipper socks on her hands. I had thrown the socks away because they have a hole in the heel. Lilli found them and dug them out of the trash. She loves them. They have a cow print, so she puts them on her hands and walks around saying "Mooooo!" You can see that she has a finger poked through the hole.

Sierra College 23rd Annual Juried Student Exhibition
2021 Juror: Aida Lizalde
Juror’s Statement:
“The Ridley Gallery at Sierra College has over two decades of being a visual arts and cultural hub in Rocklin, CA. It was an honor to be invited to jury their Gallery’s 23rd Annual Juried Student Exhibition, not only because of its significance to the regional art community and its history of exhibiting high caliber international and regional artists but also because I was once a community college student who directly benefited from student exhibitions and the guidance of the faculty who run them. Juried exhibitions and college art galleries presented me with an opportunity to gain experience exhibiting artwork, to find my peers who were also striving for a life in the arts, and to gain confidence and critical thought about my work through being exposed to contemporary art.
Last year, students across the world were faced with an extreme shift in their learning environment, many lost the resources, community, and safe spaces that schools, and especially art classrooms, provide for us. I admire the creativity, commitment, and achievement of all the students who submitted artwork, and the fact that the Ridley Gallery adapted their curatorial practices to continue creating a space, albeit virtual, to welcome their student’s work.
This exhibition showcased a strong move toward new media. Much of the work challenged the categories that we are used to, including artwork that fit the traditional gallery space and a more widespread viewing experience of visual media structured through internet culture. Some works reinforced the importance of traditional media like painting, drawing, and ceramics, to interpret introspective and personal spaces in a time of isolation, struggle, and healing.
I was impressed by the quality of work, the range in media, themes, and experimentation of the submissions. Many works showed concerns for the current events that our country is facing like the pandemic, race inequality, and wellness, and they did so with care and originality. Black Live Matters Tribute (2020) is an honest and potent view on being Black with powerful spoken word poetry and graphics, Lost Connections (2020) by Michael Caspi and Science or Magic by Kevin Belcastro (2020) focus on narrative, and in the case of Belcastro, a humorous and imaginative perspective. I admired the technical skill in digital paintings from Sheryl Rivera and Christina Becher, the strong personal symbolism in Kristol Lopez’ Daughter of Buffalo Haired Woman (2019), the mystery and visual poetry of Kimberly Tagye in Train from Berlin (2019), and Michael Quinn’s Orion and Joshua (2020). These were just a few of many artworks that I viewed with enthusiasm, curiosity, and delight, but many more showcase a promising future in the field and dominance over media. The artists included in this exhibition represent the genuine diversity of backgrounds and skills that Sierra College nurtures, and the timely and highly creative interpretation of our current society’s struggle, vision, and adaptability.” - Aida Lizalde

The following quote by photographer Keith Carter encapsulates my philosophy about photography.
"I don't just look at the thing itself or at the reality itself; I look around the edges for those little askew moments-kind of like what makes up our lives- those slightly awkward, lovely moments."
When I am making photographs, I endeavor to absorb my surroundings and tune in to how my state of mind and my memories affect the existing elements; and how they all work together to produce my work.
CCSF Photography and You:
I first took a photography class at CCSF in 1982. It was Beginning Black & White Photography. This was the impetus for me to further my studies in photography. After completing my degree and working as a commercial photographer for a few years, I began working at CCSF as a part time instructor in 1997.
Over the past 15 years I have looked at CCSF Photography Department and fellow colleagues as my second family. I made several life-long friends in both my colleagues and former students. I was also able to continue to learn more about photography and its changing role in the photography world.

Absolutely inspired by this photograph which is just completely fantastic! [However, I purposely didn't try to exactly recreate it as I am not such a fan of photographers doing that.] Rather, I decided to put my own spin on it!
