16th Annual Studio Tour and Art Show

The RHGA is a proud sponsor of Richmond Hill’s 16th Annual Art & Studio Tour. With over 46 artists at 18 locations (9 community spaces and 9 Artist’s Studios) the tour showcases some of Canada’s most impressive works of art!
The Mill Pond Gallery will showcase the work of 5 of our talented members. Several more members will be participating in this year’s tour opening their home studios or showing at other community venues.
What a great opportunity for residents of the Town of Richmond and surrounding communities to take the tour, meet the artists and purchase one-of-a-kind works of art!
