The Frederick Art Walk is a 4 km walking tour through one of Kitchener's oldest neighbourhoods, bounded by Victoria and Krug Steets (on the north and south), Lancaster Street and East Avenue/Indiana Street. Participants can enjoy the beauty of a fall day and the pleasure of exquisite artworks, in a setting of grand maple trees and century-old homes. The Art Walk features an amazing array of hand-crafted works for sale, including fabric art, paintings, photography, pottery, stained glass, sewing crafts, and jewellery.

20th Annual Frederick Art Walk
Saturday, November 7, 2020
10am to 5pm

Applications for homes on the 2020 Art Walk are open now, and will close April 30.

SPECIAL NOTICE IN THE ERA OF COVID-19:
We are moving ahead to plan our 20th Walk, but in these uncertain times we recognize that events like ours might be impossible or inappropriate when the date arrives. We will keep the safety of our artists and visitors as our first priority. Please watch this site for updates as the summer and fall unfold.

Our Art Walk is held on the first or second Saturday in November every year, and each year we choose a charity to support. Working together, our homes and Art Walk patrons typically raise over $400 for a local organization. These have included Suddaby Public School's Nutrition For Learning programme, The Poppy Fund, and The KW Humane Society.

In 2019 we supported Healing of the Seven Generations (H7G), located in the heart of the Central Frederick Neighbourhood at 300 Frederick Street, with a donation of $495. The organization provides support for Canada's First Peoples by providing food, clothing, programs for youth and seniors, counselling and many forms of cultural programming. H7G supports many people from our community on very little funding. In addition, they are a vital source of information on culture, truth and reconciliation for all of us.
