Burlington's grassroots
creative community
Formed on social media in early 2021 to help artists connect during pandemic lockdowns, the Collective has grown into a vibrant network making a real impact in Burlington and beyond.
We build supportive connections, showcase new and emerging local artists, and create opportunities for artistic growth through workshops, events, and collaborative experiences.
Upcoming Events
Elizabeth Gardens Art Walk
Our flagship annual celebration of local artists in the heart of the Elizabeth Gardens neighbourhood — open studios, outdoor installations, and community spirit all in one unforgettable day.
Artists apply to exhibit and connect directly with collectors and neighbours. Burlington's most intimate, community-rooted art experience.
