Dauphine Bakery and Bistro... formerly Queen of Tarts... is allowing the Monochrome Guild to exhibit some of our photography. We expect that this will be an ongoing venue for the group, and that the prints on display will be changed from time to time. On Saturday, a few of the members of the group hung 14 prints. Five of the current group members are taking part in this show, but it is hoped that more will join in as time goes on. There will be an official opening next weekend.
Linda Kearney, the owner of Queen of Tarts, has graciously allowed the Monochrome Guild to utilize the wall space in her Bakery and Bistro, to display our work. She is most unfortunately embroiled in a senseless legal battle with a woman from Ontario. In good faith, Linda registered her business name in Alberta, and assumed that life was good and business could continue. To her dismay she learned that a woman in Ontario owned the trademark on the name, and despite the fact that the Ontario Queen of Tarts is no longer operating, Linda is being forced to stop using the name in Alberta. So, the name of the establishment is in the process of being changed to... Dauphine. In conjunction with that change is the opening of our exhibition.
Please stop by for the official opening next week.

the lady in ontario obviously was looking for a quick dollar....why not give the lady in edmonton an opportunity to change her name before legal action. or at the very least, purchase the name from the lady who's now out of business.
