Rails End Gallery & Arts Centre is a public art gallery located in Haliburton’s heritage railway station. A registered Canadian charity, the Rails End was established in 1980 and is dedicated to providing opportunities for the exploration, appreciation, expression and exchange of the contemporary creative arts. The Rails End Gallery & Arts Centre offers a balanced yearly schedule of approximately 7 temporary exhibitions, which contribute to the county of Haliburton as a local and regional cultural centre. In 2007 the gallery had over 8,000 visitors. We seek to present exhibits which introduce a variety of arts practices, media, and techniques; impact perceptions; highlight diversity; provoke discussion and heighten awareness of contemporary art by local, regional and national artists.
