Markham Group of Artists

The Markham Group of Artists has been a vibrant community of artists in the Markham area for over 27 years. The group includes artists from beginners to professionals, working in a variety of media from acrylics to watercolours. Learn all about us.

The Markham Group of Artists has made a donation to The F.H. Varley Art Gallery to allow two children, Kyle and Kiara, the opportunity to attend their Summer Camp Program. The children were selected through a partnership with the Yellow Brick House, an organization that provides shelter and counselling for homeless and abused women and children.  The donation was made in the name of artist Doris McCarthy, in celebration of her 100th birthday.
