“We hope to see all the hidden corners and treasures that you find in Port Hope,” says Jamie Byers, Manager of the Port Hope HBIA.

Participants can submit their photographs in the following categories:

“I hope this event will showcase to the rest of Ontario just how beautiful our little town is,” says Martha Ciana, Chair of the HBIA and local business owner. “Art has the power to bring people together and as we welcome many new residents and visitors, this is a great opportunity to take a closer look at our community.”
