The All Weather Gang had its origins when Don Grideger and John Hodgins of Batavia, N.Y., used to meet at the Miss Batavia Diner each Saturday morning to drink coffee, indulge their passion for sticky cinnamon rolls, then head out for some place in Genesse or Wyoming counties to paint a landscape.

When they presented their first exhibition of landscape paintings, they humorously named themselves The Group of Two, hinting at the renowned Canadian artists known world-wide as “The Group of Seven.”

Welcome back to campus
