The Meeting House
We're a church that loves to ask questions, and loves people with questions. We don't have all the answers, but exploring together is pretty much our favourite thing.
We meet on Sundays at 10:30 am.

Nottawasaga Handweavers and Spinners Guild
The Nottawasaga Handweavers and Spinners Guild, founded in 2003, provides a venue for members to practice the art and craft of spinning and weaving in a supportive fibre arts community. Meetings are held on the third Saturday of most months and feature guest speakers, demonstrations, presentations by guild members, or mini-workshops. Members meet to work on projects on Thursdays from 10 a.m. until noon, frequently followed by a light lunch in the Gibson Centre Café.
The group is involved in community outreach activities and provides demonstrations at various community events. For more information, contact guild@darwinsys.com, call (705) 435-6991, or visit our website www.nottguild.ca.
Each November, the Guild hosts Seasonal Wrapsody, a show and sale of unique, hand-made items ranging from fibre arts to food, featuring a wide variety of local vendors. The sale takes place at the Gibson Centre in Alliston.
Artists at The Gibson
The Artists at the Gibson provide two different painting opportunities in the beautiful, bright Holmstrom Hall gallery on the second floor. Tuesday studio painters have as a mentor, Greg Hindle, who is the artist-in-residence at the Gibson Centre. Greg provides help in whatever area the artist wishes to develop. The Wednesday studio painters enjoy painting on their own with support from other group members. Visitors and new members are always welcome. For membership information please call or email Joan Warren, 705-434-9904 or joantomwarren@gmail.com.
Better yet, drop in and see us on a Tuesday or Wednesday.
The Holmstrom Hall Gallery features paintings primarily from the Tuesday and Wednesday artists. Be sure to visit the gallery often as the exhibit changes every few months. You might just find your next "most favorite painting"!
