Arts Carleton Place partners with local businesses and the city to showcase our members’ art. There are several venues displaying art in two month rotating exhibits. These locations also benefit from the beautiful, original visual art. The public can view the art at these locations during business hours as many pieces are in public areas. Art may be purchased by contacting Arts Carleton Place. Contact ACP
