Situated in the beautiful historic town of Mahone Bay, Nova Scotia, we are located just off Highway 103, and merely an hour from Halifax! We have a vast collection of yarns, both local and from around the world. Visit our shop to explore our beautiful yarns and meet our friendly staff.
Oh I wish I lived in Mahone Bay to partake in their shop life...a group of local ladies were sitting comfortably & having a great time knitting/chatting. The owner couldnt have been nicer...immediately asked if I needed help and took me right over to the local NS yarns. Love to purchase locally produced products when travelling. Have a Yarn had the best selection of the 4 (lol)yarn shops I visited in NS. Couldnt resist her cute store project bag either. Knitters: be sure to stop.

Clay Café Truro is a FUN and inspiring place where you can CREATE and PAINT. From the fun to the functional, we've got great pottery pieces to choose from. We're all set up with the tools, paints, and ideas you'll need. Spend quiet time alone, quality time with your family, or relaxing social time with friends. It's not necessary to make reservations and you don't have to have any previous experience.
Every time I go to Clay Cafe everyone always has lots of fun and makes good memories. Staff always helpful and full of ideas, tips, and encouragement. Now with covid they offer take home kits which is a great idea to do something different at home and still have fun. Lots of selection online.

Welcome to LaHave Weaving Studio situated in the UNESCO World Heritage Site Town of Lunenburg, Nova Scotia. Lesley Armstrong teaches and welcomes guest artists to offer a variety of workshops in textiles, design, and fibre art in an historic building overlooking the harbour. Resident weavers in the studio make for a congenial and stimulating community while the workshops go on around them.
LaHave Weaving Studio offers free artists' talks throughout the summer, bringing together students and local artists, and further strengthening the local fibre arts community, of which Lesley is an active member. I highly recommend the textile conversations and look forward to attending a workshop sometime soon!

Art Lab Studios and Gallery is an open working studio environment for five artists whose work spans from clay to ink, fabric to paint: you'll find works in oil, acrylic, and encaustic, as well as jewellery, fabric, book making and polymer clay. An excellent quality selection of art supplies is also available. In the Gallery you can view exhibitions from regional artists of note. Art Lab also encourages entry into the world of creation through its extensive workshop series. The atmosphere is very welcoming and relaxed.
I love the variety this gallery offers, several different mediums, watercolours, acrylics, pottery and quilts. Oh I would love to have bought a quilt, but we were in a hurry to get to the Joggins Fossil Park. I wish I spent a little more time, the artist in the store was ever so lovely, very chatty and friendly. If you have the time, talk to the artist and have a look around, it was a beautiful collection of arts. I actually bought a watercolour pad, pencils and pens (limited in supply) for my own arts.
