The Tiger Hills Arts Association's purpose is the fostering and promotion of the arts in the area outlined by the municipalities of Argyle, Lorne, Louise, South Cypress, South Norfolk, Strathcona, and Victoria. It is an arts-service organization serving people interested in and involved in the visual, literary and performing arts focusing on the promotion of family arts related activities. The Board feels that the future of the arts anywhere lies with young people and the participation of these young people in multi-generational activities. A complete cultural perspective is dependent upon input from all age groups and interests. Herein lies the real potential of any program in the arts. The Association provides a rich cultural environment for people of all ages and interests so that children, as they grow, cannot only look back at what the arts has offered them, but also look forward to a lifetime of involvement as a natural sequence of events.
This is an environment conductive to the growth of community fellowship and co-operation.The following groups are members of THAA.

GALLERY IN APRIL. Kelly Klages. FOR ALL THE SAINTS: A Liturgical Art Showcase.
"For All the Saints" is an eclectic celebration of liturgical artwork inspired by the rich artistic history of the Christian church. The word liturgy comes from two Greek words which indicate a work that is done in the interest of the people. Throughout history the church's liturgies and aesthetic forms have served as teaching tools for believers, from the colored paraments and vestments, to the stories of stained glass, to the beautiful and unique musical forms. In modern times, the importance of beauty and value in our culture has waned and often gives way to commercialism, gimmickry, kitsch, and cheapness-- a sickness from which churches have not been immune.
This illuminating exhibit invites you to re-discover the role of beauty and art in the truly counter-cultural reflections of the church throughout time, and to consider faith as being worthy of the highest artistic expressions. The show features paintings on canvas, illuminated manuscript, imagery, items of jewellery, mosaic, and other pieces utilizing a wide array of media. Kelly's informative and entertaining website and blog can be found at http://www.kellyklages.com . Also upstairs, we have new photography by Bernice Klippenstein of Manitou. Gallery Hours are Monday to Friday from 10 - 5 and Thursday evenings from 7 - 9. Located at 103 Broadway Street in Holland, Manitoba.
