The Kathleen Gormley McKay Art
Centre, also known as the Salem Eckardt House, was built between
1845 and 1851 by Andrew and Salem Eckardt, sons of Philip Eckardt,
one of the original "Berczy Settlers" who founded
Unionville in 1794.
It was also once the home of F. H.
Varley, the famous artist of the Group of Seven. He lived and
painted in this Gothic Revival cottage home for the last 12 years of
his life. It now serves as an art centre for studio classes.
The McKay Art Centre also features
exhibits and works for sale from talented community artists and is
the perfect spot to visit on your next trip to Unionville.
