Welcome to the
of the Halifax Art Map (2009)
The 2009 edition of the Halifax Art Map will
be published in May of 2008, with an anticipated print run
of 25,000 up from 22,000 copies last year and 20,000 the
year before. It will again be a professional, attractive,
full-colour production that will offer a limited number of
artisan/artist/gallery listings. All listings will be keyed
to a locator map and included on our web site. Ad spaces
are also offered to galleries and other art-related businesses.
Included with the artist’s listing is a free web site/email

$25, you can add an expanded profile to the Halifax
Art Map web site. The web site may be found at www.halifaxartmap.com. Check
