Culture Days

Thanks for the opportunity to celebrate arts and culture in this country. For us in Orangeville it started with the fist ever Mayor's breakfast with arts awards. Dragonfly has a packed weekend full of demos and 'make and take' projects. Dragonfly Awakenings, Focus on Nature will be putting he spotlight on Stone, Leather, and Wood. Leather belts, turquoise pendant, basket-weaving, stone cutting. Drop in and talk to our resident artists about their techniques. Also a busy time for Studio Tours and the Headwaters Arts Festival begins today.

Claudia J Mc Cabe


I have rarely seen such wild abandon. Colour, brush strokes, fanciful yet definite. Claudia is passionate about her work, each painting has a poem accompanying it and she has published this body of work in a book, entitled "Musings" Thank you Claudia.
