Tett Centre for Creativity and Learning

The Tett Centre for Creativity & Learning is a charitable arts organization, operating in the beautiful J.K. Tett heritage building on Lake Ontario's waterfront in Kingston, Ontario, which is situated on traditional lands of the Anishinaabe and Haudenosaunee. This historic building is owned by the City of Kingston and was fully renovated in 2015. It originally formed part of the Morton Brewery and Distillery Company, which was built in the mid-19th century.

Together with our resident arts organizations, the Tett is part of an arts hub, offering many opportunities to immerse yourself in Canadian arts: classes, workshops, exhibitions, open house events. The Tett contributes to a vibrant arts community in Kingston by fostering collaboration among the tenant groups and with Queen's University, the Kingston community and beyond. The fully accessible J.K. Tett Centre engages and supports artists of all disciplines and levels of expertise.

The Tett's vision is to be a thriving hub of artistic creation, learning and exchange that engages and inspires every part of our community, and it's mission is to make space for arts exploration, artistic development and creative incubation in Kingston. We do this through a welcoming community hub that brings together spaces, people, ideas and tools that support creativity and learning experiences.
