BRINGING ART TO LIFE IN HALIBURTON
Located in Haliburton's landmark rail station, we present contemporary Canadian art, craft and music by regional Artists.
ART SQUARED IS BACK!
Art Squared is a benefit sale of 12 x 12 paintings by local artists in support of Rails End Gallery and Arts Centre. Over the summer we will be holding pop-ups at selected locations and placing works in the Rails End ONLINE Shop.
You can get involved by volunteering, donating a painting or purchasing work(s) at a PoPUP or online.

MAKING CONNECTIONS THROUGH ART
A sense of belonging brings purpose to our lives and is key to building vibrant communities. Rails End Gallery and Arts Centre is a registered charity that supports human connection and belonging through creative arts engagement and shared experience in public spaces.
Shown here is a textile work by Rails End Artist Member Sandra Clarke; fibre artist, maker and craftivist. Sandra devotes some of her Volunteer time to teach traditional craft and slow mending at Rails End in person and online. Watch for Sandra this summer at selected PoPUPs.
Donations in support of year round community programming may be made through Canada Helps.
