Welcome to the Arts Carleton Place website!
Arts Carleton Place is a non-profit arts organization dedicated to empowering artists and area residents through the arts. See the following information for what we are currently up to. Feel free to browse our website for more details about our group and to view our online database of area artists.
Please take a look around to familiarize yourself with us and what our organization is about (check out the about and history pages for detailed information). Our current activities page will outline our current activities while the artist activites page will outline upcoming events featuring members of our artist database. The most recent Arts Carleton Place and Artist activities will be listed on the bottom of this page. The artist database is an electronic directory of registered artisans from Carleton Place and the surrounding area.
We are always looking for new volunteers to help us promote arts in Carleton Place, so if you have any interest in volunteering, we would love to hear from you. Also, if you have any questions or suggestions, or are interested in registering in our artist's database, please contact us and someone will respond shortly.
In June 2009, Arts Carleton Place graciously accepted donated office and gallery space from the Chamber of Commerce at the Train Station Visitor Centre and Gift Shop (see address below). Drop in and check out the original art, jewellery, pottery, cards, photography, the written word and more.
