Welcome to Art Borups Corners

Nestled in the heart of Northwestern Ontario' within Melgund Township, Borups Corners is more than just a dot on the map – it's a vibrant, unorganized community with a rich history and a bright future. Often associated with our close neighbour, Dyment, Borups Corners embodies the resilience and spirit of small-town Ontario. Our roots run deep, tracing back to the late 19th century when the discovery of gold transformed this rugged landscape into a bustling hub of mining activity. While the mining boom has long since passed, the legacy of determination and community spirit continues to thrive.
