When we’re Indoors

For many years, we’ve known how fortunate we are to have met so many great supporters of the arts and to own a beautiful, historical, rural church building. This year COVID-19 created a great hardship for everyone and notably for the arts community.  After being shut down in March 2020 then able to open outdoors in June we again experienced how fortunate we are to have our entire lot as a “patio” space for many great performances and safe gatherings in the fresh country air throughout the summer.

Moving indoors, we continue to see how fortunate we are to be able to open our “church” windows  for that fresh country air on a daily basis.  Along with our air filtration system we have been advised to add a large-room humidifier.  Dry air is an environment where viruses thrive and humidifiers could lower virus infection risks. We continue to  provide hand sanitizer and follow regulations regarding social distancing, masks and lexan dividers. Your safety, our safety and remaining vigilant is paramount to us.  Please review our COVID-19 Safety Policy before you attend.

Currently open on the patio, weather permitting for various events and summer shenanigans.
We are following all social distancing protocols, government regulations and as such require reservations. See the “Summer Patio” tab.
We’d love to have you come out to the Old Church.  You’ll experience fantastic music and alternative theatre in an intimate space, and help keep live performance in the community.

Our place is a beautifully renovated, rural church built in 1876.  It’s an unmatched acoustic experience for top notch live music and theatre, home of the Roy Bonisteel Studio.

We have barrier free access and no, the seating is not pews.  We have comfortable seats, nicest in the country, we’re told!

Oh yes, and we’re licensed.  We offer Ontario craft beers and local County wine.  Let us know your beverage of choice and we’ll see if we can get it in for you!
