About Us

The Grand Bend Art Centre was founded in 2008 by artist Teresa Marie Phillips and, with the addition of a Board of Directors, incorporation, and charitable tax status, became its first Executive Director.  Today, we have a Board of Directors focused on “inspiring creativity in the community”. We operate programming from our location at 16 Municipal Drive, Grand Bend Ontario.

The team is focused in 5 main areas including;

  • Community Partnerships
  • Youth Programs and Events
  • Adult/Senior Programs and Events
  • Supporting Artists
  • Sustainable Funding and Operations, including our fabulous “Paint Ontario” Show and Sale which not only is our main fundraiser, but a festival of art activity for 3 weeks in May.

We are always looking for both board members and volunteers to assist us as we strive to offer art activities that inspire our Grand Bend community.
