it's time to take yourself on a day trip to Cambridge, Ontario

Let's Stroll.... in CAMBRIDGE! As a Stroll newsletter subscriber, you get this information before I share it through social media, so you get first crack at the dates & tickets

I can't wait to host you on our first guided mural tour in Downtown Cambridge!

There is so much for you to see - international artists, local artists, an early effort at a street art festival, old ghost signs, fresh new work and all the stories to go with it. As we stroll, we'll explore the question: What do murals and street art contribute to a downtown or public space? What does it way about a city of community that invests in murals? 

I can't wait for the conversation since I alway say, "art is meant to be discussed"! 
This walking tour has public dates available on Wednesdays & Saturdays from mid-August until the end of September. Grab you friends, neighbours, colleagues & join the Stroll crew!

The Cambridge Mural Tour is offered in partnership with the Downtown Cambridge BIA

Need an event for your work team? Birthday party? Anniversary? Family-in-town visit? Stroll has you covered! Being outdoors together as a group will invoke some school field trip vibes (hopefully positive ones!) and give you the chance to explore the city, learn a few things, share a few laughs and leave feeling healthier, happier and smarter! 

You choose the walking tour, your preferred date & time & we coordinate with the guide to make it happen! Each guide has a different schedule so we'll have options for you to choose from
