Located in the Ajax Creative Arts Centre - 22 Sherwood Road W. at Linton in Pickering Village, in Ajax. Spring and Fall Shows display works of over 50 artists.

Artist, Joan Bontje
In Joan’s own words, “I enjoy walking in the park among tall trees, rocks and the beauty of the sky and water that surround me. Uplifted by nature, I quiet myself and become an observer and listener. My soul becomes inspired and encouraged, and my creativity soars. I now get out of the way, and allow the Spirit of God to move onto my canvas.”
See Joan's Journey ....and a portfolio sample of some of her lovely watercolours.
Joan Bontje's art show entitled "No Strings Attached" in her studio home was a huge success, see coverage of the event.
