Lapine Tour

How does a little town such as Minden, Ontario, become associated with a renowned Russian-born, Canadian artist?

It could be said it took an unfortunate car accident - or a kind-hearted man, who had some understanding of Canadian art. Whatever the case, join us on The Lapine Lap; a glimpse into the life and times of Andre Lapine, which spans continents, the heights of Toronto's art society, and quiet back roads. It is full of life and friendly characters every step of the way.

History of Logo

The Minden Hills Cultural Centre (red) logo represents the unity of the areas of the centre; Minden Hills Museum & Heritage Village (yellow), Haliburton County Library Minden Branch (brown), Agnes Jamieson Gallery (blue) and Nature's Place (green).

The red maple leaf symbolizes the national significance of the Centre's collections and the fall beauty of local trees.

The leaf and triangles are a bridge over the blue line which represents the Gull River.

The colours are based on those used in the Haliburton tartan.

The green represents the forest, blue is for lakes; white for snow and the trillium; red and gold for fall colours; brown for the earth and fur-bearing animals.
