What to Do

Year four saw some rain, a first for Sundance and this year we are double checking our order for three days of brilliant sunshine during the fifth year of the Sundance Studio Tour. Twenty artists are in attendance this year including four new attendees. Numerous patrons commented last year that this is by far the most welcoming, relaxing and organized show they ever attend and will be back in 2011. Please join us this year as we offer some of the most unique and original environmentally creative art available in Ontario today. Explore the gardens and trail, rest by one of the ponds and engage our artists in conversation. Our motto at Sundance has always been “turn off the cell phone, relax and let us entertain you.”

“it's such a pleasure to have time to talk, time to stroll and time to sit by one of the ponds and not having to rush to the next studio...what a great idea“

Sundance welcomes Frank Morrison, one of the original Townsmen, a top 100 band from the 60’s who had smash hits like "We’re Doing Fine" and "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" Frank brings an uptown blend of pop and country to Sundance in its 5th year. The Townsmen were recognized as the opening act for numerous international names like “The Young Rascals’’. Accompanying Frank will be a number of local musicians each day.

What to See

group artists

Located on the outskirts of the village of Maberly, Carmen´s gardens have charmed thousands of guests for the past three years. Some of the artists are displayed in timber frame “studios“ along the cedar trail which shares an acre and a half with our enchanting gardens. Artisans from across Ontario join us this year. Our artists value and care for our environment by utilizing as much reclaimed or natural materials as possible. Blended with our local talent this group exhibits a unique experience in originality and design. With 20 artists in as many disciplines, there is something for everyone.
