ANVIL RANGE ARTS SOCIETY
The Town of Faro has a number of local artists. The Anvil
Range Arts Society (ARAS) is a local non-for-profit society
that provides support for development of artists and artisans
in the region, through training workshops, marketing, and
networking.
ARAS is in the process of fundraising to build an Art Centre
that will give local artists the opportunity to sell their work
and provide a space for local art workshops. Until ARAS
opens its own gallery, local arts and crafts can be purchased
at the CRIC as well as other locations throughout the Town.
