Constructed in 1857 through the efforts of local farmers and the Ramsay Library Board, Union Hall has been used continuously for 160 years . A mural of the Floating Bridge which crossed Taylor Lake at Conc 12 from 1859 to 1943, adorns the entire inside back wall of the building.
This is our “Settlers” studio, particularly appropriate for Canada’s 150th celebration. Our country has welcomed immigrants from all over the world and these people brought their traditional skills and talents with them. It is easy to imagine a similar market of artisans selling their wares a century ago…..Clement with his pottery, Colin the pewtersmith, Clare’s handmade soaps, Chris with his hot glass art, Joanne with her wire wrap jewellery and Laurette furthering the work of early gurus whose interpretation of “light” inspires her photography.
