A hidden gem! I come here often to look at the new exhibits- the gift shop also has incredible things from empowering women shirts to beautiful jewellery and scarfs. Entry is by donation and it is very homey

We went to the MacLaren Art Centre because one of their exhibit areas featured historical photographs. In fact, there are four galleries in the Centre, each with a different exhibit, so there was much to see and enjoy. In addition to the exhibits, we also enjoyed the building itself. They used a former Carnegie library building that has great windows and character and added on a new, modern section to get extra space. The marriage of old and new really works. I also found the staff at the front desk to be particularly warm and welcoming. They made sure we knew where all the exhibit spaces were located so that we wouldn't miss anything.

Exhibits are very hit and miss for me. Suggested donation is very reasonable, though. Great place to get some cultural exposure on the weekend.

Great place to visit. If you play Pokemon Go it's also a Pokestop as well.
