The Civic Centre is also the centre of activity for artistic endeavours of our citizens. Local artists, budding artists and/or hobbyists can enjoy various rooms set up with looms and weaving equipment, a general art workshop and a pottery studio. Local artists have art hanging in the halls and walls of the building, on display to present the community with a snapshot of the some of the talent that Elliot Lake has to offer.
The Stage Door Players (SDP) are a lively group of performers who put together extravagant and entertaining shows lip-synched to popular music, complete with ambitious and professional sets and elaborate costumes. SDPs shows have sold out the auditorium on a number of occasions, to date the only non-profit group to sell out the 360-seat theatre, and all net proceeds of the ticket sales go to local charities.
