Gallery News and Updates

Cambridge Art Galleries invites the community to explore how art can help create a sense of connection, healing, and belong in a new community exhibition at the Preston Gallery.

Olivia Mae Sinclair's exceptional artwork, It Takes Two, has been proudly added to the permanent art collection of Cambridge Art Galleries. A jury chose the piece as the newest acquisition from the Queen’s Square exhibition, Next in Fibre: 20th Anniversary of Fibreworks.

Symposium Piece for Eva by Canadian sculptor Haydn Davies has been installed at our Queen’s Square location since 1997. After an extensive deaccessioning process, which included consultation with the artist’s family, it was decided that the work be removed from its Queen’s Square location. On November 21, 2023, the work was returned to the Davies family. As a community, we have enjoyed this important Canadian sculpture for over 25 years.

Cambridge Art Galleries and Idea Exchange are excited to launch a new collection of art and exhibition catalogues that are now available for members to browse and borrow.

Cambridge Art Galleries and Idea Exchange are honoured to support and host the Cambridge Poppy Project. This community art project of Remembrance is created with hand-knit and crocheted poppies made and donated by community members.
