The Yorkton Public Library, City of Yorkton, Sask. Lotteries, and the YBID have partnered up to bring an 'art walk' to the community.

The library began the process hosting a 'Cozy up and Color' program whereby they supplied colouring packages for the community to pick up.

Thirty packages were handed out and returned.

This gave the Yorkton Business Improvement District (YBID) an opportunity to use the artwork in local ‘gallery’ locations at local businesses.

Thursday two of the artists, Olga Stupak, 88, and Annie Antoniuk, who will turn 100 Monday, visited their works in the front window of LR Future Insurance & Investments on Broadway Street in the city.

The artists were accompanied by Cyndi Hoffart and Rae Perith, recreation workers at the Yorkton District Nursing Home.
