Current Exhibition
‘Vantage Points’ features the work of six accomplished artists with varying methods and imaginative processes for perceiving, interpreting and translating the reality of nature into the language of art. Through their unique expression of line, colour, form and pattern, each artist invites us to escape into the natural world, calling us to explore the idea of what landscape represents and how we observe the magic in the space around us.
Visiting the Gallery is free. Parking is available.
Featured this month in the
Creative Conservatory
Candice Nixon is the creator of MELTING POT STUDIO. She is a graphic designer and glass artist based in Cornwall, Ontario, Canada.
Candice creates unique glass artwork combined with repurposed items like antique windows, bottles and century-old barn board. She is inspired when an object with a utilitarian purpose finds new life as a work of art.
Studio
The Cline House Studio offers a variety of programs allowing artists of all ages and levels to explore and create.
Workshops & Classes
Workshops are delivered by professional artists in various disciplines who are eager to help you get the most out of your arts experience.
Open Studio Sessions
Open Studio is a non-instructional drop-in program offering artists a chance to develop skills at their own pace in a supportive community environment. Artists bring their own materials and work at their own pace on their own projects. Individual critiques may be arranged during these sessions.
History of the Cline House
The Cline House, “one of the finest homes in all of Cornwall” was built in 1854 after the marriage of Samuel Cline to Margaret Dickenson. It remained in the Cline family until 1955 when it was purchased by the Cornwall Library Board.
