Learn About Mississauga's 2023 ArtWorks Show, Hosted by Arts on the Credit

With over 30 astounding artists under one roof, the third annual ArtWorks event happens on November 4th and 5th, 2023. It’s a wonderful opportunity to support local artists and get some early Holiday shopping done.
Sporting a variety of artistic mediums, including wood working, pottery, paintings, textile weaving and more, Mississauga’s ArtWorks event is proudly presented by Arts on the Credit.

Admission is free and the event takes place at long-time supporter of Arts on the Credit, The Waterside Inn.

ArtWorks was creatively born out of the need to support local artists. Organizer Marie Payne says “we had to cancel our April fine art show for the second time that year (2021) and we wanted to establish some event to allow the artists to show and sell all the work they had been creating while in isolation with the pandemic for a couple of years. We were the first organization to attempt an in-person show as the COVID restrictions began to lift. We bravely went ahead with masks, disinfectants, distancing booths, and many signs to remind visitors of the rules in place. ArtWorks proved to be a joyous event with everyone overjoyed to be out and interacting with other humans. We’ve continued with the November event as it's a great opportunity for the public to get an early start on some fabulous holiday shopping.”

There’s also gift wrapping services available, with all proceeds benefitting Epilepsy South Central Ontario.
