The geographic area normally served is "La Baie Sainte-Marie" or Clare, a rural Acadian community located along the Acadian Shore region between Digby and Yarmouth. Le Conseil des Arts de la Baie has been offering programming in visual art since its inception in 1968. The programming began with a few painting workshops and two open member exhibits a year at the chapel at Université Sainte-Anne. Le CAB later moved its exhibitions to the University’s Galerie Père-Léger-Comeau, organizing two open member exhibits a year and gradually increasing the workshop schedule to meet demands. In 2004, with the opening of La Manivelle printmaking studio, and a strategic plan for growth, le CAB began the steps needed to become a nationally recognized artist run center. In 2009, le CAB and La Manivelle became members of l'AGAVF (l'Association des Groups en Art Visuel Francophone) and the AARCA (Association of Artist-Run Centres From the Atlantic). We have over 100 members, and continue to expand our educational and promotional activities. The opening of Le Trécarré, Galerie d’art Contemporain, in the newly opened Rendez-vous cultural center (2009), marks an important step in the organization’s evolution and the realization of our ongoing objective to promote the development and appreciation of visual arts and culture in the region.
