Stefanie and Ron have always supported all I have done here at The Point and still do.

As a family we have all enjoyed the company and the conversations that that decision brought us. What I hadn&#8217;t anticipated was the extraordinarily rich diversity of the art and artists that we have welcomed here. I have especially enjoyed the ideas. I would like to think there is a thread of creativity that links everyone who has worked and exhibited here, islanders and visitors alike.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0}\">\u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\">What I totally hadn&#8217;t anticipated, and has been a source of great pleasure, is the number of artists who have stayed in touch and returned to visit.

The decisions made then by artists for artists are its strength, <\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun AdvancedProofingIssueV2Themed SCXW33326219 BCX4\">in particular that<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW33326219 BCX4\"> the work be anonymous in its <\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW33326219 BCX4\">initial<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW33326219 BCX4\"> jurying, dependent on the image alone. SSNAP deserves respect for NOT being funded by a large corporate body but by individual donations, supported by the volunteer efforts of most of the artists on the island and a very loyal community. This sort of organization nurtures creativity and the artists themselves in a way that no Sobey&#8217;s or RBC ever can.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"EOP Selected SCXW33326219 BCX4\" data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong>Looking back on your involvement with SSNAP, what has been most rewarding?<\/strong><br \/>\n<span class=\"TextRun SCXW121093195 BCX4\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\" data-contrast=\"none\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW121093195 BCX4\">The most rewarding aspect of SSNAP for me was that it made us <\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW121093195 BCX4\">come up with<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW121093195 BCX4\"> an <\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun ContextualSpellingAndGrammarErrorV2Themed SCXW121093195 BCX4\">artist<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW121093195 BCX4\"> residency program. The meetings of the Arts Council committee that ran that program, held at Joan McConnell&#8217;s home, was one of the most pleasurable groups of people I have worked with in 50 years of involvement with the arts in Canada. It was a great shame and shortsighted when the Arts Council decided it could no longer afford to run the program. The SSNAP residency continues as <\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun ContextualSpellingAndGrammarErrorV2Themed SCXW121093195 BCX4\">a last<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW121093195 BCX4\"> vestige of this program. It should be noted that the main support for the artist and for myself during any residency has come from the ex-members of that Arts Council committee.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong>What are your hopes for the future of SSNAP?<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Parallel show was a great innovation. I haven&#8217;t changed my mind about all art competitions but I have changed my mind about this one. I hope very much that it continues to prosper and that island artists continue to be involved in its logistics, its mounting, its publicity and above all in its decision making. Anywhere in Canada art making can become isolated and incestuous. It is incredibly important if art on Salt Spring is to be nurtured and grow for there to be the opportunity to measure what has been made here with work from elsewhere. The energy from that buzz of conversations which oscillate around SSNAP and its residency cannot be underestimated.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-79431 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/saltspringartprize.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Margaret-Day-2-WEB-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pendant pr\u00e8s de trois d\u00e9cennies, Margaret Day a contribu\u00e9 \u00e0 faire de The Point un lieu o\u00f9 se rencontrent les artistes, les&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":70,"featured_media":79430,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"class_list":["post-79432","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.4 -
