About
Take part in a community art project. On both Saturday and Sunday we will have a mosaic outline on a large mural ready for you to add your artistic flair - solid colours, stripes, dots, waves, whatever - it's your chance to get creative. We'll have a list ready to add your name and hometown for all to see who participated.
As an bonus on Saturday, listen to music provided by the Polyesters from 1 to 3 pm!
Get creative by painting rocks in your favourite motifs. Think mandalas, flowers, butterflies or whatever you fancy! This fun event requires no artistic training.
Take the time to learn about the history of the Art Gallery of Bancroft and its permanent collection, which holds the largest collection of original Oscar Schlienger works in Canada.

Operated by volunteers and financed by fundraising, the AGB mounts 10 exhibitions per year focusing on local artists. Every month the Gallery presents new shows, which include the annual "Invitation - Juried Exhibition". Exhibition proposals are accepted for the Dec 21 and June 21 deadlines.
In encouraging public participation in the visual arts, the Gallery runs a slate of workshops (mostly one-day sessions) throughout the year with talented instructors teaching skills in a variety of artistic media.
