Summer 2010 a unique dream will come true for the Actors' Tutorial… The opening of The Edward Jones Mansion: An Artist Retreat in one of the most beautiful areas of all of Nova Scotia.

This facility, built in the early 1820's, sits on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean and is an historical gem of Colonial Architecture. Restorations to renew the facility to its original glory are almost complete. The facility has several grand formal rooms that will hold workshops and forums and residence space, 6 of which have working fireplaces. The views to the ocean and surrounding landscape are nothing less then breathtaking.

It is the objective that this facility will provide a place and a home for several different kinds of artists working collectively or individually in small groups within their chosen art form. The Retreat is dedicated to providing a rich and inspirational environment in which to create, empower, liberate and rest the artist’s body, mind and soul.

Kevin McCormick has offered artists retreats in the past in Northern Ontario. Visit this page often for updates on those retreats. Plans for a retreat in the Crystal Beach area of the Niagara Region are expected to be announced soon.

Mr. McCormick is also working at present with Hart House at the University of Toronto to plan some exciting artists retreats near Orangeville Ontario at the Hart House Lodge.
