Wellington Artists' Gallery and Art Centre opens for its 3rd Season May 1, 2010, with the Opening Ceremony taking place at 2:00 p.m. This Season follows two very successful seasons during which Members were lauded for the fine quality and the diversity in the work displayed. Each month a new Guest Artist was featured and each month an appreciative outside group or a special in-house exhibition was presented. The quality of work displayed was exceptional throughout both seasons. In this our 3rd Season our Members are enthusiastic about bringing new and interesting pieces of work to display for the public's viewing and purchasing pleasure.
This year the Gallery is hosting at its Opening, St. John's - Kilmarnock School's Spring Exhibition, " Congruent Running", an eclectic selection by grades 9-12 students.

Joanne Ross-Zui, Warden of Wellington County and Mayor of Centre Wellington; Pat Reimer, Chair of the Elora Arts Council and Catherine Paleczny, Art Instructor at St. John's Kilmarnock School will bring greetings and messages.
