Video from the Siloam Hall meeting, Tuesday, Nov. 3rd, 2009
The UAA has a vision for the Siloam Hall as a focal point for the arts. Exploring just one of our options as an example, we expect the hall will provide a venue for the creative pairing of sensory and artistic endeavours, facilitating the exposure and experience of art, craft, music, and literature, with each other, as well as with fun and flavourful complementary experiences.

The Uxbridge Arts Association nurtures and promotes the arts in the Uxbridge area. We facilitate communication among arts organizations, artists and patrons, raise the profile of the arts and provide arts-related information to the community.
Uxbridge Township is a uniquely artistic area; the quality and quantity of artists, both professional and non-professional, who live and create their art in Uxbridge, is impressive…and sometimes overwhelming.
