About

The Centre for Creative Arts services our community through visual art and craft programs and events. Last year over 15,000 participants visited the Centre to enjoy our programing including classes and workshops, school and community group tours and activities, summer camps and many special events. The Centre for Creative Arts facility is healthy, accessible, functional and well equipped. It includes specialized studios for arts programming and artist drop in, gallery and gift shop spaces featuring local artists and meeting and spaces for community groups, artists and events. The Centre for Creative Arts plays an integral role in enriching our local culture, supporting our developing artists, and engaging our youth in the arts.

The Centre for Creative Arts is Pleased to offer our Healing Arts Program (HAPI). HAPI is designed to provide artistic opportunities to anyone that faces a barrier that would otherwise keep them from participating in Artistic and Cultural programming. We aim to be inclusive and wide reaching, servicing students with varying ages, social and economic backgrounds and ability levels. In 2020, our youngest HAPI student was 6 and our most senior student celebrated their 100th birthday. Last year nearly 1000 students participated in the program locally.
