Artists from across Canada and the USA visit Parrsboro every year. These artists are among the best in North America, and they come here because of the almost mythical power and beauty of the Bay of Fundy landscapes.

This comment from a painter in North Carolina says it all - “Parrsboro is a painter’s paradise”.

While the landscapes surrounding Parrsboro are breathtaking, this picturesque village offers a variety of amenities that is quite amazing:

Two of Atlantic Canada’s top rated Museums - The Fundy Geological Museum and Ottawa House by-the-Sea

Three Art Galleries - Art Lab Studios, Main & Station and Arlene Collins Gallery

The Band Hall - one of the best small venue performance spaces on the East Coast

Professional Theatre - The Ship’s Company Theatre is one of Nova Scotia’s premier theatres

It also has a superb Farmers Market, excellent Family Dining at the Glooscap Restaurant with Seasonal Dining by the water at the HarbourView, and there’s both a Craft Brewery and a Bistro right on Main Street.

And for Outdoor Enthusiasts, there’s boating, swimming, golfing, and miles of hiking trails along spectacular beaches and across soaring cliffs.

While Parrsboro does offer an extraordinary location and an array of arts and entertainment events, what really makes this village such an exciting place to live and a charming place to visit is - its people.

Parrsboro is a community where the local residents work together in shared endeavours and welcome visitors with courtesy second to none.
