Officially, the aim of the group is "to further the best interests of art", particularly in Etobicoke, through the mutual and co-operative efforts of our members.
Unofficially... we are there to have a great time. We paint, sculpt, or draw, and learn new techniques while we make friends, hold exhibitions of our work, enjoy lecture evenings with lively experienced speakers who share with us their artistic visions, raise money for bursaries for local students to continue their art education and generally enjoy making innovative art.

NEILSON PARK
CREATIVE CENTRE membership helps support our use of Studio B and the
other
Centre facilities.
Studio B is a spacious studio with both natural and adjustable artificial lighting and provides space for up to fifteen members in a class situation to work together and share ideas. Equipment available for classes includes tables, chairs, easels, drawing horses, both large and small printing presses, slot-hood and overhead ventilation, and a variety of still-life materials. As well as a basic list of classes held on weekdays, we offer occasional weekend workshops. Some recent workshops have included encaustic, portraiture, abstraction, and landscape.
