The Saanich Peninsula Studio Tour is on this coming weekend, October 20-21st. The tour hours are 11 am to 4 pm, but the winery will remain open until our regular 5 pm. Muse Winery is listed as Studio #19 on the map and we'll have plenty of maps on hand in case you want to make us a start point to pick up a copy.
We'll have
Barry Tate with us at the winery for the tour. Barry brings a huge portfolio of acrylic & giclee paintings and prints. His style is eclectic Westcoast, so there is something for everyone. Barry lives on Piers Island and has been showing at the winery for about 15 years now. Where does the time go!
We have 2 new artists to the winery this year, first is Sandra Fowler. Sandra is the first LEED AP qualified artist in Canada. Sandra produces glass works for both architectural installation and free standing sculptures. Bringing the unusual into the commonplace allows people to enjoy beauty while understanding the benefits of energy from the sun &
photovoltaic sculptures. Check out her website for details on the process.

Last but not least is Don Bastian, wood carver, furniture maker, "that wood guy in Sidney"!
Check out his website for a look at what he has to offer! He even makes Wine boxes- we think those are quite fitting for a bottle of Muse Winery Grand Dame Rouge!
We look forward to seeing you out the for tour and rumour has it the sun will come out again by then.
The Tasting Room will be open 11 am to 5 pm both days.
