The Creation of the Tett Centre for Creativity and Learning The Power of CommunityUnder the leadership of John K. Tett, Director of Recreation, the City of Kingston purchased the deindustrialized Morton Brewery and Distillery complex in 1971 with the hope of transforming it into a community hub for the arts. The site was named the J.K. Tett Complex, in recognition of Tett’s vision, and functioned as an informal arts cluster until the mid-2000s.
