Dunes Studio Gallery

An easy detour from the coastal route of the Prince Edward Island National Park, the Dunes Studio Gallery offers a unique glimpse into Canadian art, with its impressive collection featuring work by more than 50 local artists and craftsmen. Owners Peter Jansons and Joel Mills are renowned for their award-winning pottery and visitors can watch the ceramists at work in their studio, as well as soaking up the scenery in the idyllic gardens or stopping for lunch at the on-site café-restaurant.
Of course, the real highlight of the gallery is the varied array of crafts on sale, with items including oil, watercolor and batik paintings; gold and silver jewelry; woodwork and furnishings; textiles; blown glass; and handmade gifts like scented candles and organic soaps.
