About the Lakeshore Art Trail
|
Lakeshore Art Trail is an annual self-guided art tour through the scenic villages of Clarkson, Lorne Park and Port Credit that takes place the first weekend after Thanksgiving.
The Trail was first established in 1999 as a collective of local artists, exhibiting from their artist studios. As the Trail has evolved, it has become a community event, as artists partnered and collaborated with local small businesses, libraries and galleries throughout Clarkson, Lorne Park and Port Credit, creating an annually-anticipated weekend gallery/studio hopping event. Participating artists are juried into the show by a panel of three esteemed Lakeshore Art Trail artists: Doreen Renner, Gabby Tutak, and Joseph Sampson. As the Trail is a cooperative of artists, each participating artist contributes to the organization of the event through volunteer tasks and procured sponsorship advertisements. Lakeshore Art Trail is a cooperative of visual artists operating in Mississauga Ontario, Canada. |
