My introduction to the Ojibway Art Show came through my late mother-in-law, Carol Barrett. She often spoke fondly of how much she loved having her beautiful watercolor paintings displayed and sold here. I now participate in the show as a tribute to her creative spirit and deep connection to this special place.
Carol and her husband, Charlie Barrett—who owned Macklin Island—were longtime, active members of the community. Before that, their family spent summers on Clovelly Island. In later years, her son Scott Somerville warmly welcomed my husband and me to Beehive Island, where we shared many unforgettable summers.
