🌟The Stratford Artists Takeover Show 4.0! 🌟

🎉 On June 5th, Matilda Gallery & Art Bar will once again be transformed into a celebration of Stratford’s creative community, featuring works by more than 50 Stratford artists in the second largest SAT exhibition since the very first takeover.

🥂 We're also celebrating THREE YEARS of Matilda Gallery & Art Bar that night! Expect special birthday art deals and an endless amount of colour!

🗓 Opening Night: Friday, June 5 | 5:30PM
📍 85 Downie Street, Stratford ON

Over 50 incredible Stratford artists will be showcasing original works 💥

🎨 PLUS: Be among the first to experience the second installment to Adam VanderHeide's "Art Warriors Save Stratford". An abstract fantasy-inspired body of work rooted in comic book imagery and contemporary conversations surrounding creativity and AI. Created through layered mixed media on hand-prepared wood panels, the series imagines Stratford as the setting for a battle between artistic expression and invading AI forces, celebrating the enduring importance of the creative process and the artist’s hand.

✨ Celebrate Stratford. Celebrate Art. Celebrate Community.
🖼️ Show runs until July 12th, 2026.

See you there!
