A thriving hub for artists and art instruction, Dundas Valley School of Art is an independent not-for-profit art school, serving the Hamilton region since 1964. Through our courses, lectures and workshops, we provide high-quality and accessible visual arts education to over 7,500 registrants annually, bringing together artists of all ages and from all walks of life.

We believe art plays a vital role in changing how we think about the world. By creating art, we connect with our senses through investigation, conversation and exploration. Our studios provide an exciting environment in which to learn from the art masters and from each other.
