Cultural Centre

More

The Minden Hills Cultural Centre is a four acre site in the village of Minden that includes the Agnes Jamieson Gallery, the Minden Hills Museum & Heritage Village, Nature's Place and the Minden Hills Branch of the Haliburton County Public Library. The site is connected to the downtown Riverwalk by the Boardwalk which traverses over natural wetlands.

Learn About Minden History

Lapine Tour

How does a little town such as Minden, Ontario, become associated with a renowned Russian-born, Canadian artist?

It could be said it took an unfortunate car accident - or a kind-hearted man, who had some understanding of Canadian art. Whatever the case, join us on The Lapine Lap; a glimpse into the life and times of Andre Lapine, which spans continents, the heights of Toronto's art society, and quiet back roads. It is full of life and friendly characters every step of the way.

Membership

Membership helps support our community programming and contributes to Minden's cultural and economic vitality.

  • Individual Membership: $30.00
  • Family/Dual Membership: $45.00

Donations

Please consider a financial gift to the Cultural Centre and help us with our ongoing cultural preservation, activities, exhibitions, programs and events for our community.  Monetary gifts to the Minden Hills Cultural Centre are tax deductible.

On occasion individuals have generously bequeathed a Legacy fund to the Minden Hills Cultural Centre. An estate gift provides the donor with tax benefits while ensuring the long term health of the Minden Hills Cultural Centre.  Planned-gift donors are encouraged to seek the advice of their financial and legal professionals.

History of Logo

The cultural centre logo with maple leaf and coloured trianglesThe Minden Hills Cultural Centre (red) logo represents the unity of the areas of the centre; Minden Hills Museum & Heritage Village (yellow), Haliburton County Library Minden Branch (brown), Agnes Jamieson Gallery (blue) and Nature's Place (green).

The red maple leaf symbolizes the national significance of the Centre's collections and the fall beauty of local trees.

The leaf and triangles are a bridge over the blue line which represents the Gull River.

The colours are based on those used in the Haliburton tartan.

The green represents the forest, blue is for lakes; white for snow and the trillium; red and gold for fall colours; brown for the earth and fur-bearing animals.
