A truly wonderful must-see destination!
"I have visited Andara Gallery several times - it is a must-stop destination for me! The hosts are amazingly friendly and generous with their time. Tara's photographs remind me of places I have travelled in the past and inspire destinations for future journeys. Andrew's encaustic paintings evoke delight and joy, and are often reminiscent of the surrounding Ontario coutryside. Don't miss the iconic outdoor gallery in an original county barn and the delightful Love Next studio while you are visiting!" Risa |
