DUNNVILLE—Over the last year, I look back and see all the progress we made to refocus our organization. I am ever so grateful for our Board Members Paul Chartrand, Fred Bulbeck, Jillian Wiebe, Janice Peart, and Anya Wiebe for their continued support and ongoing work to bring our vision for the future of Haldimand Art Works (HAW) to reality.

I am excited to announce that through your continued support of HAW, we are able to partner with both the Dunnville Agricultural Society and the Caledonia Agricultural Society to sponsor all artistic and photographic categories in both 2020 Fairs. This not only helps showcase the work of our talented local artists, but it puts money in their pockets too.

We have much positive news to share with you.

We look forward to working together with our community to really, truly, make art work for Haldimand County in 2020.

Clearance and liquidation of Gallery & Gift Shop

We’re all settled into our new home at The Minga, but during the move we’ve discovered we have a large number of works of art in our possession and they need to go home.

Due to loss of information or to the changing of contact information, we are seeking help to identify and track down the artists who made the work in our possession. Throughout the month of January, we have been photographing all works in our collection and posting a visual library on social media and through our email list. It is our hope that our friends and followers can help us connect with artists or their families to get work back to its creator.
