TESTIMONIALS

“It is such a welcoming, acoustically rich, and magical space for a Sound Sanctuary group healing & meditation event. The venue and the humans who run it were amazing to deal with, and I’ll be sure to return regularly. Participants enjoyed the space immensely and remarked on the wonderful acoustics and setting. Thank you to The Andrew—I’ll be back soon!”—Alicia Wright Williams, Sound Sanctuary

The Andrew at Picton gave us everything we wanted and more. From the beautiful ceremony to the amazing reception, the entire day went off without a hitch, and we couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a stunning, relaxed, and unforgettable wedding venue!—Elsa & Ross

“An absolutely gorgeous space for programming! We are so grateful for The Andrew. They are a delight to work with, communicative, and quick to respond. Plus, they offer not-for-profit rates, which helps us keep our programming affordable.”—Gabriele Cole, Baxter Arts Centre

“A bright and welcoming place filled with music and friendship.”—Marianne Gallagher

“I can't say enough about The Andrew's main hall. It is a beautiful space—light-filled, serene, open, and welcoming! You can feel the love, care, and commitment that everyone who works there brings to this special place. What a joy to meet there each week for our morning yoga classes. Thank you to The Andrew!”—Kelly Cade, Yoga Therapist/Teacher

“The PEC Field Naturalists hosted a presentation on Biodiversity in Prince Edward County. The Andrew's beautiful interior was the perfect location for us. Botanist Sheila Kuja's PowerPoint presentation worked seamlessly for both the live and Zoom audiences, and as we recorded the event, we can make it available to future audiences via YouTube. The Andrew's beautiful, calm interior and tech capabilities couldn't have served us better. Thank you!”—President, PEC Field Naturalists

“The Andrew has always been a warm and welcoming space for our choir. We appreciate the ability to be creative in using the space for our rehearsals. There is an energy in the building that allows us to channel into our music. The great acoustics make this venue stand out over any other potential rental space. The facility is always clean, and it is affordable.”—Jim Leighton, Command Performance

“Our theatre group booked The Andrew for our preview event this past spring, and the space worked perfectly. They were great to work with as far as booking was concerned. We had a tour the day before and were shown how to use the sound system and lights. There was also a projection screen available, which we didn't need but will most likely use in the future. We were given access to all the tables and chairs we needed and even used the little kitchen to put together some appetizers. Another bonus was advertising with their large sandwich board sign and through their direct mailing list and notice board. The space itself is bright and clean. The stage is big. The flooring is beautiful. Washroom access was convenient. We were even given access to the basement space for our "green room". We will definitely be back in this space soon.”—Sarah Kirby, Theatre Roulant 

From the moment you walk into The Great Hall, you feel its incredible beauty.  The high ceilings and natural light from the skylights made the room warm and inviting and created the perfect environment for us to exchange our vows in the presence of our family and friends.—Jordan & Sam

“The Andrew is a vibrant community which is wheelchair accessible and inclusive. The space is beautiful, with lots of light from the 12 newly installed skylights. Christi Belcourt's amazing mural at the Bowery Street end of the building is uplifting, as the title "Wisdom of the Universe " suggests. The labyrinth in the garden is worth a visit to escape our busy lives.”—Margaret Page

“The Andrew offered everything we hoped for in hosting A Life Remembered, a lovely space with flexible seating, great acoustics for music, and most of all, Lynne Donovan’s guidance in planning a service that was joyous and meaningful for our family.”—Kae

Great community space. With a grand piano!”—Cat Ivan

“I've been to The Andrew for services and rented the space there. It's physically beautiful and welcoming, with an inclusive philosophy. The grand piano, the speakers, and the acoustics are all wonderful. 5 stars.”—R.D.G.
