After ten years of operation in the Ottawa area, Unity
Arts moved to Toronto.
The new address was: Unity Arts Inc. - Nine Pines
Publishing, 10 - 945 Middlefield Rd., Toronto, ON,
M 1 V 5E1.
The primary reason for the relocation was the
need to expand and be situated nearer the
Bahá'í National Centre in Thornhill.
Although Unity Arts was privately owned and operated,
it acted on behalf of the National Spiritual
Assembly as the national distributor of Bahá'í literature
in Canada for the previous few years.
- During the two previous years, Nines Pines Publishing,
the publishing imprint of Unity Arts, collaborated
on a number of joint publishing projects with
Bahá'í Canada Publications, notably A Tribute to
Amatu'l-Baha Ruhiyyih Khanum and Century of
Light. [BC Vol 15 No 2 June 2002 p25]
