Winter Warmer is a small intimate festival in St. Andrews by the Sea, New Brunswick, meant to help participants feel cozy in the midst of winter.
It combines great music from both established and promising new artists in intimate settings often with the option of sampling a taste of something warm and delicious and washing it down with a beverage or two!
Spend fun time on Saturday, December 3 from 11:00 am – 4:00 pm at Sunbury Shores Arts and Nature Centre, Water St., St Andrews. Make your own artworks in our print, clay and media studios. Be creatively inspired while enjoying holiday treats and music! At our Deck the Walls exhibition, shop for artworks, decorations, woolens, cards and more. All ages welcome! FREE!
During open house, you’ll make your own special artworks guided by experienced artists and teachers. Print your own seasonal cards with printmaker Avril Bull Jones; create cute needle-felted mice with artists Lorna McMaster; and paint colourful glazes on your own clay pots with ceramist Leo Depres. Young artists can enjoy painting with artist Emmaline Mortimer. Visit our felted reading nook for quiet time with books about art and famous artists.

For the fourth year, CMHA issued a call for participants to create artworks that help shine a light on mental illness. Fifty-eight artworks were submitted by 24 residents of Charlotte County living with the effects of mental illness for exhibition in Art in Mind.
Artwork in a variety of media, including acrylic on canvas, watercolour, wool, needle felting, crochet in cotton and other materials are presented in the exhibition. Artist statements that accompany the artworks describe the significance of creativity in the lives of the artists and how the creative process improves mental well-being.
The exhibition opening and an opportunity to meet the artists will take place Friday, November 10 from 5:00 – 7:00 pm. The public is welcome to attend.
