Description
Creating the painting “Temple Gardens Dance Hall – Circa 1948” was a challenge that only became possible with the assistance of many people and the Moose Jaw Public Library Archives. The history of the Temple Gardens Dance Hall is filled with stories of events and people that spans over six decades. As I worked on the painting, I felt that I was becoming part of a very important memory for the many that graced its wonderful dance floor. I heard stories that could only be told by those lucky enough to have been part of this colourful era in Moose Jaw.
