RECONNECT

The Maquette Art Fair was founded to provide local artists with a dynamic platform to showcase and sell their work, network, and engage with the public. This juried annual event fosters artistic exchange, offering meaningful opportunities for networking, collaboration, and showcasing work.Hosted at the Cotton Factory—one of Ontario’s most vibrant arts hubs—the Maquette Art Fair takes place in a historic, creative setting that perfectly complements the energy and talent of participating artists. As both a venue and a sponsor, the Cotton Factory enhances the fair’s mission to celebrate and support the thriving arts community in Hamilton.Looking ahead, the Maquette Art Fair aims to expand beyond the Cotton Factory, bringing pop-up exhibitions to galleries, retail spaces, theaters, and unique locations across the city. By activating diverse spaces, we strive to make art more accessible, connect artists with new audiences, and further strengthen Hamilton’s reputation as a cultural destination.
