The 2013 Gathering resort is beautiful, quiet and secluded, perfect for a relaxing getaway. But our weekend includes enough exciting activities that you might not want to spend too much time relaxing. You can start off Friday afternoon with a tour of the fabulous Fulford Place Manor in Brockville (included in the cost of registration).  Their afternoon tea may tempt you to linger for a while.

 

Friday evening we are going to test your shopping IQ!  The line-up for Saturday and Sunday workshops includes some new instructors and tempting projects in 1/12th and 1/4 scale, with breaks for marvelous meals.

 

Pick your favourite shop and sit at a table dedicated to that kind of shop.

Table gifts and centrepieces will follow your choice of theme.

 

And don't forget the souvenirs!

 

The new miniature swap, quick kits and silent auction are back and there are some fabulous Gathering Helpers.

 

Of course, we can't forget the Artisans' Mart.  Look for some new faces there too.  After all, our theme is "Shopping"!

 

I hope we see you there

Maybe we should apply for a research grant!
