Welcome

 

Art in the County 2012 will run from June 29th – July 15th. This annual event will be held upstairs at Books & Company, 289 Picton Main Street.

Each year, Art in the County displays the highest quality of work from County artists and artisans. All of the art displayed is carefully chosen by three distinguished and experienced art experts who are professionally qualified jurors. These jurors are solely responsible for the content of the show, for the five Jurors’ Choice Awards and five Honourable Mentions.

The exhibition is a highlight of the summer season in Prince Edward County, attracting residents from around the Quinte area and visitors from across Canada, many US states, Europe, Asia and Australia.

The People’s Choice Award, determined by ballots completed by visitors to the art show, are awarded at the end of Art in the County.
