A Gift of Art for Clarington PDF Print E-mail

A Clarington not-for-profit organization located in Newcastle is giving local artists a boost, while providing area art lovers a place to take part in classes, workshops and demonstrations.

A Gift of Art is located at 20 Robert St., W., Unit C in Newcastle. According to the group's website at www.agiftof-art.com, "the Studio is used not just for classes but for various programs that benefit the community as a whole. An example would be a seminar discussing the usefulness of herbs in the household."
