A painting created by an artist who once called Steinbach home was donated to the Mennonite Heritage Village.
In a ceremony coinciding with Manitoba Day, senior curator Garth Doerksen accepted the art piece from donors Gerry and Shirley Klassen. The painting, a winter scene of a windmill, was created by Juan Vicente Costales Artates, known in the Steinbach area as Vic Artates. Doerksen described him as a pioneer of sorts, as he was the first person born in the Philippines to call Steinbach home. He and his wife moved to Steinbach in 1967 where he became a lab technician at the Bethesda Hospital. He later moved into other work such as real estate and relocated to B.C. Artates, born in 1941, still lives in the Philippines.
