SUMMARY:Cambridge Art Link
DESCRIPTION:The Cambridge Art Link is a city-wide art walk and interactive exhibition transforming Cambridge into a living\, walkable gallery from May 1 to August 31\, 2026. Presented by the Preston Arts Collective\, this year’s theme\, “Botanicals: Rooted in Creativity\,” is supported by Lennox & Penney (Cambridgelaw.ca). Featuring 17 local artists and installed across 10 vibrant exhibiting locations\, original works appear in cafés\, breweries\, restaurants\, and community spaces throughout Galt\, Preston\, and Hespeler\, turning everyday stops into unexpected moments of art and discovery. Visitors are invited to take part in a passport experience: pick up a passport\, explore participating venues\, uncover artwork across the city\, and collect stamps along the way. Completed passports are eligible for prizes and invitations to a September artist meet and greet. The project is designed to pull people out of routine and into movement through the city\, encouraging discovery while supporting local artists and small businesses. Most artworks are available for purchase. The program culminates in a wrap-up exhibition and artist meet and greet at Mood Yellow Gallery in Preston\, where all featured works will come together for a final celebratory showcase.
