    If I could give 0 stars, I would. The lack of responsibility for products and customer service…read morewhen contacted is astounding. I bought 7 yards fabric of fabric labelled 'double gauze' on the website. I go through a lot of double gauze a year so I know what double gauze should be like. And I was happy to find this, especially since it was on sale. I know now why it was on sale.....anyone seeing it in the store would not buy it. They would think it was mislabelled. When this fabric first arrived in the mail, I thought it was just a cheaply made broadcloth but the weave is too loose - not as nice as broadcloth. In the meantime, I searched for this Camelot Fabric online and can only find it labelled 'cotton'. After sending an email with no response, I called 3 times before she called me back. She stated it was double gauze - discontinued and I would see when I wash it. And if I wasn't happy I should 'take it up with Camelot'. I should wash it and I would see that it was double gauze. I've washed it. I can't use this for any project that needs double gauze. It is now just a limp piece of the same cotton. She stated that if there was something wrong with this fabric that 'she's not going to lose on it....why should she? It was on sale.' With this 'buyer takes the fall' attitude, I would run the other way. I would certainly not order anything online because this business doesn't stand behind what they sell. It's all tough luck for the customer. Unbelievable. I got ripped off to the tune of almost $70. Live and learn. I'll just donate the fabric. It's not usable for my project. Or anything I would make with real double gauze.

    The MacKenzie Art Gallery should have a lot going for it. It's the oldest public art gallery in…read moreSaskatchewan and it has over 5,000 works of art spanning over 5,000 years. Unfortunately, it's only via their website that I learned about this because a visit here illuminated none of that. The MacKenzie is housed in a section of an administrative building that is about as engaging as, well, administrative buildings tend to be. The galleries on the second level are windowless and very poorly lit making for a gloomy atmosphere. A small selection of old master paintings from the permanent collection were on display as part of an exhibition. No big names here; only a few of them quite good, including a dramatic 17th century seascape of ships tossing about in a storm and a riveting 16th century portrait of a woman and her lap dog. A large scale tapestry exhibition had some interesting pieces but the bad lighting, unfortunately, made most of these works seem lifeless. That, to me, is a disservice to the artists who created them. Sometimes, I'm at a a museum at the wrong time and that's how I summed up my visit. I was hoping to see some of the Inuit art from their collection but none of it was on display. I'm sure more of the permanent collection is on display at other times of the year as exhibitions change. However, it's important for museums to have a selection of their greatest hits on display at all times so visitors can have some context about a collection's strengths. Here, I had no sense of that and, strangely, clicking through their website revealed much more information about the experience of visiting than about the art itself. Finally, as I exited the gallery into the cavernous lobby of the administrative building, I saw a few concrete sculptures of people. There were no labels anywhere to provide information about them. After hunting on the internet, I think they may be part of a larger group created by artist, Miki Mappin, but I'm not sure. It would be respectful if the artist was credited. This was the finish to an odd visit and I left the MacKenzie confused instead of enlightened. (The folks in the decked out gift shop were very nice, though, so kudos to them.)

    The permanent collection is a diverse range of Artists connected in some ways to Saskatchewan. This…read moreis my second visit in two years and I'm delighted at finding pieces that I'll think about for some time. I had time to kill so sat through an hour of short films showing in their cinema and it was an hour well spent. It is a small gallery so an hour to view everything would be a reasonable amount of time.
