Our Mission

 Haldimand  Art Works is a registered charity, established in 2001 and operated by  an elected community-based Board of Directors. Our mandate is to provide  community-based arts and fine craft education and to be a voice for the  arts in Haldimand County.

We provide Courses and Workshops in the Arts and Fine Crafts, arts-oriented Camps for kids, and we have a Gallery/Gift Shop with  a wonderful selection of art and handcrafted items that emphasizes the  work of local artists and artisans. We have formed a variety of  partnerships with other community organizations for delivery of  programming throughout the community and are the only charitable,  community-based arts centre in Haldimand County.

We  are the host organization for the River Arts Festival, an annual  multi-disciplinary celebration of the arts that takes place the first 2  weeks of every November, primarily in downtown Dunnville.

We are located inside The Minga Cafe and Community Centre at 146 Queen Street, Dunnville.
