Public art gallery and gift shop. Located within the historic Hill Meat Market building (built in 1935), the derelict building was restored in 1987 by the Island Mountain Arts Society.

Since its establishment in 1977, Island Mountain Arts has been a cornerstone of Wells’ cultural livelihood. A volunteer-driven organization, its members have worked steadily to actively engage residents, neighbouring communities, and visitors to the area in the arts through courses (the annual International School of the Arts), concerts, performances, exhibits and children’s programs and have endeavoured to create a viable culturally-based economic driver in Wells.
