Come with us on a behind-the-scenes tour of Elora Centre for the Arts! We stopped by earlier this year to capture some of their dynamic programming around their Canadian Art, Eh? celebration of Canada's 150th. Their innovative exhibits, classes, camps and workshops are worth a watch! In this episode, we check in at a Canadian artist-inspired camp. We are honoured to help build community through art, as part of the Community Fund for Canada's 150th, a collaboration between Guelph Community Foundation, the government of Canada, and extraordinary leaders from coast to coast.

About Elora and the Elora Gorge
The village of Elora is a bustling tourist community within the Township of Centre Wellington.
The nearest city is Guelph Ontario and you can get to Elora from Toronto Pearson in a little over 1hr. There's something about this place. It's mysterious and arty. It's been hailed Ontario's Most Beautiful Village. Let's take a look!
The two primary communities of The Township of Centre Wellington are the village of Elora and the town of Fergus. Amalgamated in 1999, the area is a thriving tourist destination thats bursting with natural wonder, stunning scenery, and adventure. From tubing, swimming, zip lining and ice climbing, there's plenty to do for adventure seekers. For the photographer at heart, there's a mysterious or awe-inspiring photo around every corner. Filled with historic bridges, caves, hikes and trails there is plenty to explore any time of year.
The charm of Centre Wellington has caught the attention of popular blogs, bloggers and was recently profiled in National Georgraphic.
Communities divided by a grand river
The communities are both divided in half by the Grand River which flows from neighbouring Grand Valley to the shores of Lake Erie (south of Dunnville) The 2 kilometer stretch that form the Elora Gorge are considered the most captivating. Carved away from a previous iceage, the remaining 80ft stonecliff limestone walls that remain are incredible.
Seasonal Activities at the Elora Gorge
During the summer, the Elora is a popular tourist destination and retreat from the city. Located a little over 1 hour away from Toronto Pearson Airport, Elora & Fergus is a short drive for most Southern Ontario residents.
Elora Gorge Tubing and Zip Lining
During the summer popular activities at the Elora Gorge include tubing and lazy river rafting down the Grand River, hiking the trails and exploring the caves, zip lining, or an Instagram at the Elora Gorge Lookout.
Beach time at the Elora Gorge
There are plenty of areas along the gorge to access the Grand River however if you're looking to soak up some sun, the Elora Quarry is 1km away and considered one of Ontario's best-kept secrets.
Appealing to your creative side
While you're at the Elora Gorge stop in a explore the village. The area has nurtured an eclectic mix of acclaimed artists, painters and creatives. The Elora Centre for the Arts now showcases some of the incredible art, in what was previous Elora School which has been standing for over 160 years.
Food, Dining and Accommodations
From 5 star gourmet dining to typical grab-and-go, you'll find everything you need here. Camping is a popular option during the summer but the area has a vibrant and impressive list of hotels. Like the newly renovated Elora Mill & Spa which overlooks the best view of the cascading waterfalls of the Elora Gorge. Stunning.
Grocery Stores, LCBO, Cannabis and Fast food
Neighbouring Fergus Ontario is a full-service community with fast-food restaurants and multiple grocery stores if you're looking the stock-up. You'll find an LCBO in both Elora and Fergus but in 2018 the Township of Centre Wellington opted out of a local cannibis retail stores.
Movies and filming at the Elora Gorge
In recent years, Elora & Fergus have been gaining international attention and a popular choice for movie makers and film studios. Recently Steven King filmed parts of his horror movie IT at the nearby Elora Quarry.
There is a picture-perfect opportunity around every corner. This a photographers dream.
