LANCASTER – From the Scottish thistle to a Blue Jay, Cornwall Newswatch got a sneak peak at some of the artwork being collected for South Glengarry’s Pop Up Local Art Showcase.

The art is pouring through the front doors of the township office on Oak Street in Lancaster and will continue to be collected through Friday before some of it goes on display at the octagon building at Rob McIntosh during June, July and August.

The display will be at 20369 South Service Road.

Each artist is allowed to submit three paintings and roughly two dozen pieces will be chosen for display, with preference given to South Glengarry artists.
