Hamilton has a thriving art scene and many artists have chosen to call Hamilton home because of the availability of cool work spaces and the lower price tag to buy/rent compared to our neighbouring big cities. With close proximity to urban and rural inspirations Hamilton has been pegged as the new art hub, with the slogan “Art is the new steel” ringing loudly.

With Art crawl starting up again this spring along James St. North and the much anticipated Super Crawl back in full effect, Hamilton will be buzzing with all sorts of events, art, and music!

Another amazing event coming up is the “The square Yard Show” at the Paul Elia Gallery. This show is featuring so many awesome Hamilton Artists and is taking place in such a cool space. This is an art show not to be missed!

If you are as excited as I am about local art then check out this line-up!

We can’t forget about our local treasure The Art Gallery of Hamilton! With in-person visits to the amazing exhibits, summer camps, and events back this spring/summer you need to add a visit to your schedule!
