SavePlace Title: Fairview Fine Arts CentrePlace Description:
The Fairview Fine Arts Centre is a little gem in the Heart of the Peace.

They also offer an affordable meeting and event space. Check out their website for more details.
A Bit About Our History
The Fairview Fine Arts Centre started out as the “Craft Centre” in the mid-sixties. Ladies met at the old E.E. Oliver School to work on weaving, pottery, jewellery making, copper enameling and various crafts. Due to a fire in the building, the members had to relocate to the Provincial Building for a brief period. The group formed and registered as a society in 1979 and began planning to build their own centre. The Fine Arts Centre, at its present location, opened in the fall of 1981.Address: 10801-103 avenue Fairview, AB
