À propos
Headwaters Arts presents the 28th Annual Fall Festival Open Juried Art Show & Sale at the Alton Mill Arts Centre in Alton. Over 75 talented artists from across Ontario showcase art works, selected by a panel of jurors, that include a diverse selection of subject matter and mediums including: oil, watercolour, and acrylic painting; soft pastel, mixed media, cold wax, pencil, sculpture/soapstone/wire/metal, wood, blown glass, pencil, encaustic, photography, textiles/fibre and clay. All works are for sale, supporting our organization and artists.
Additional Fall Festival Keystone events include: Jurors Walk, Artists Market and Authors Afternoon.
Located less than one hour from Toronto, the Alton Mill Arts Centre is home to some 25 studio artists, galleries, a heritage museum, and unique shops. Truly a one of a kind space! Exuding heritage, nature together with the arts. Built on the banks of Shaw’s Creek, this national-award-winning heritage building is now “a jewel in the crown of the GTA’s arts scene“. We are proud to call it our home! The Alton Mill is totally accessible and there is free parking and several EV charging stations on site.

Mission:
Headwaters Arts exists to bring together artists and supporters to promote the development, appreciation, and enjoyment of all arts in the Hills of Headwaters Region (Caledon, Dufferin County, Orangeville & Erin)
Vision:
Headwaters Arts wants to be able to state with confidence that the Hills of Headwaters region is a widely recognized centre for artistic excellence; a location of choice for artists seeking a nurturing, collaborative community. And that the region is a home to residents and businesses that value support and participate in the arts as well as a renowned destination for tourists seeking high quality and fun arts experiences.
Implementation:
We fulfill our mandate by providing artists of all ages and at all stages of their career with greater exposure, sales, networking opportunities, professional development and education. We strive to create opportunities for the community-at-large to enjoy and participate in the arts. Headwaters Arts looks to the future by nurturing the next generation of artists and art lovers. We initiate collaborative marketing efforts to better promote both within and outside our community art produced in the Hills of Headwaters. Some of the ways we do this is by mounting an annual multi-site arts Fall Festival, special music/art events-Tapestry of Art and Music implementing the Headwaters Arts Youth Scholarship, providing a monthly art exhibitions at the Headwaters Arts Gallery at the Alton Mill, as well as programming open access multi-level discussion workshops with arts professionals.
