Artists selected by the jury to display at the final destination of the canoe route and hiking trails will be at the center of all the many activities. 10' X 10' booths are $50 (plus a refundable deposit.) Artists must supply their own tents or canopies. You can find further information and apply online at  www.haldimandartworks.ca . Applications must be received by May 31, 2013, to be considered for entry into the show. Contact Haldimand Art Works, a registered charity,admin@haldimandartworks.ca by phone  at 905-772-7000.
