Terror Train 6077 – Sellwood Asylum
A spirit lingers. The echoes of community haunt the remains. Boarded up, there's a pervasive "wrongness" to this once vibrant place. Buildings slump into debris. We know that someone once called this Town home. People lived, laughed, and loved in those ruins, fought and cried behind those walls. No Town better fits the above than SELLWOOD. Enter the Terror Train 6077 - Sellwood Asylum. The 8th annual Terror Train is sure to ignite the senses as live trains rumble alongside the haunt at the Northern Ontario Railroad Museum in Capreol. The Terror Train opens on Sat. September 28 and runs on Friday to Sunday schedule until October 27 from 7pm to 10pm. We will reopen on October 30 with special Halloween Eve programming. During the haunt, there will be themed nights and additional valued added programming included with admission. The Terror Train is recommended for those ages 13 and older. General admission tickets are $13 each and can be purchased in person or online at www.normhc.ca. This is an outdoor attraction, so please dress accordingly. In the event of rain, advance tickets will be honoured for another event. Please call 705-858-5050 for more information.

I went to AGO in Toronto for the first time on my 11th birthday this past February and was very inspired to take my painting to the next level. Many people have told me I should take classes but I feel like that would stifle my art and at this time in my life, I don't want that. My mom always encourages me to be free and that is what I am doing. I am feeling so lucky that One Sky has given me a chance to show my art to my friends, family and the public. I hope that you like it too. This series of work is called "Beneath the Sky" as I am very inspired by the world around me and nature. I don't know what the future holds for me and art but right now it is what I love doing. I also love baseball, basketball and football and playing my harmonica. I feel very honoured to have an exhibit and am so happy I get to share my art with you! PS: None of...
