Welcome to A Gift of Art
The Clarington Artist & Artisan's Gallery is
a convivial place to drop by, discuss art, partake of a class, peruse the work on display and hopefully leave with an appreciation for these artists who having toiled alone are now enjoying this symbiosis.

Have you always had a hidden urge to paint that magnificent sunset you see every night? Or to write that poem that's been talking to you from the back of your mind? Or to take a piece of gnarled driftwood and chip away at it until it turns into a seagull? Let us help you discover the inner talents hiding inside you!
At A Gift of Art we have classes for just about anything you've ever dreamed about doing, but didn't know how to do it!

The Latest Book from Barbara Ponomareff - In the Mind's Eye,
a story about The Great War and returning soldiers that are bringing their shattered minds
back home with them. For Caitlin, who is one of the first female graduates in psychology and an intern at the Toronto Hospital for the Insane, this is a critical time. Her professional and emotional lives are complicated by a relationship with
