City of Brampton Culture Master Plan

Free Art Friday in Peel

Free Art Friday in Peel

Kicking off Culture Days and returning for it's third year, artist James Flux has once again teamed up with PAMA, Visual Arts Mississauga, Visual Arts Brampton and Peel Arts Collective to bring Free Art Friday to the Region of Peel!

 

What is Free Art Friday?

Free Art Friday is a global movement where artists gift pieces of work to the public by leaving them around their city for people to find them.

Imagine a city wide scavenger hunt, where patrons can roam the streets to find free artwork to bring home and enjoy for years to come! On Friday, September 29th 2017 we hope to flood the whole Region of Peel with free art. Free Art Friday is in an attempt to bring art to those who may not be involved in the art world, as well as creating as many smiles and memories as we can.
