The Community Enterprise Centre (CEC), located at Unit 1, 5229 St. Margaret’s Bay Rd, Upper Tantallon is the Information Centre for the Peggy’s Cove Area Festival of the Art. Normally open only on weekdays between 9:30 a.m. and 4 p.m., the CEC is open the same hours as Paint Peggy’s Cove on the first weekend, and the same hours as the Studio Tour on the second weekend of the Festival. Studio Tour Maps and information about Festival events are available.
July Members’ Show
In addition to being open for both weekends of the Festival, the PCAAS Members’ Show runs from July 3 to July 31, and helps to keep a little of the Festival energy going throughout the month.
The July Members’ Show at the CEC offers PCAAS members the chance to exhibit one piece of art at Location #1 on the Studio Tour. For artists participating in the full Studio Tour, this piece will be labeled with their tour location—an excellent way to draw visitors to their studio for more. Those not on the tour can still be part of the event, sharing a sample of their work and ensuring their presence is felt throughout the tour.
Artists receive 100% of the proceeds from any artwork sold.
All PCAAS members are welcome to take part by submitting one artwork for display. To register your piece, use the link below. For questions, contact Shelly at shelly.simpson@dal.ca.

Volunteering Opportunity
We recognize that the July Festival weekends are already very busy for PCAAS members, but artists who are not on the Studio Tour have a great opportunity to take a 3-hour shift at the CEC during the Festival, to meet with community members on the tour. Volunteers work in pairs, with our goal being to pair an artist with an art appreciator for each team. Please contact Sherrie Redden if you are interested in taking a volunteer shift at sherrieredden@gmail.com.
