The Oka Art Gallery Cultiv’Art is located in the heart of the orchard of the same name in a charming yellow barn-stable. This unusual location for an art gallery proposes to you an exposition displayed in a country decor. For this 21th year, 40 local artists and craftsmen will surprise you by presenting their most recent productions. You will see watercolours, oil paintings and acrylics, photography and integrated mixture techniques, textile art, pottery, painted rocks, eggs art and jewelry. The elegance of art accessible to everyone.

It is an invitation where culture and agriculture join together and brush one another in a most exquisite atmosphere creating a country fresco where it is pleasant to stroll in and relax. At the end of the summer, the artists love to come and replenish their energy and expose their crafts in this relaxed setting, far from the city. A treasure for the art amateurs, an adventure for the kids, this gallery improvised in a barn-stable in the center of a vast orchard of more than 6000 apple trees, will not leave you indifferent. Several settings on site will serve the need of recreational activities for the whole family: small farm animals, lamas and horses, picnic areas, tractor rides and outside games for everyone. And of course, the art gallery, the country products boutique, a lunch counter, the rest area and much more to discover. Escape to the country and let yourself be impregnated by our flavours, our works of art apple cider, caramel and home made apples pies. .

Thanks to the complicity and the friendship of many artists in the area, Anne Arseneault, Gallery director and painter, presents us again a unique exposition and captivating artistic activities in a setting of autumnal resort. The Cultiv’Art Gallery is a regional artistic springboard for local artists and is managed by the artists themselves. Take advantage of your visit to exchange with the artists. You will be able to discover their great creative talent, during the official opening on Sunday, August 27th at 2 pm.

On this occasion, the administrators of the Orchard will award ``Prix coup de Coeur dans les pommes ``. For 9 years, this prize’s objective is to highlight and reward the work of an artist or a craftsman for his or her originality, sensitivity and the quality of his or her work.
