Welcome to ArtWorks East
ArtWorks East (AWE) is an association of artists and crafters who live in Guysborough County. Our non-profit corporation began in 2019 and is listed with the Nova Scotia Registry of Joint Stocks. We welcome local artisans of all ages and levels of experience as well as those who want to support the visual arts in our area.
Rob Carter
Rob has deep local roots in the area where he and Beverley live in a restored 1910 family home overlooking Philips Harbour and Chedabucto Bay.
Wilda Kaiser
My artistic vision is influenced by the wild natural landscape of the eastern shore of Nova Scotia.
Ruth Fraser Gillie
I make wire and bead jewelry and other interesting items. I use all kinds of materials – wherever something pops up that speaks to me – including fish scales, cabochons (a gem polished but not faceted), and of course beads.
Moni Duersch
The diverse range in my artistic style, my drive and yearning for new techniques, experimentation, and self-challenge leaves every artwork a special and unique piece to connect with.
Julie Anne Fox
My first love in art making has always been landscape and still life. While I visited Nova Scotia frequently over the years, I was happy to retire in Guysborough in 2018.
Our Vision
Our vision is a community where the skills and related products of the visual arts and crafts are appreciated, shared, taught, promoted, and purchased by residents and visitors, both young and old.
