The community of artists in our area has always been a strong presence. But in the past few years we are being made more aware of the beauty and diversity they bring to us each day.

With the addition of several art galleries and boutiques and events such as the Musical Mile and First Fridays, the artist has been able to showcase him/herself beyond the stage or art shows. And the artist is adding energy and excitement to our everyday life not only with their products, but their very presence..

The ARTS doesn't end with music, performance or visual arts. Havre de Grace also offers the Healing Arts. With meditation, yoga, therapeutic massage, aromatherapy, art therapy, and more, we present you with many wonderful reasons to visit our fine city.
