In 1954, a group of art teachers formed the Five Counties Art Association in order to bring together artists and art activity occurring in Dufferin, Peel, Wellington, Waterloo and Halton counties. The success of this association led to an inevitable expansion and name change in 1964. For the next 50 years, the Central Ontario Art Association has been an independent non-profit organization coordinating exhibition and instructional events geared at fostering leadership, mentoring, networking, and participation in visual arts.
