Introducing ROUTE 22 Gallery

ROUTE 22 Gallery is an elevated, multi-discipline visual arts gallery operated by the dedicated volunteers of the CIAS Artist Collective. Behind the gallery display space we are also establishing an Arts Makerspace to provide arts programming for all ages.  The new ROUTE 22 Artist Collective Gallery is located at Unit 18, 312 5th Ave (Grand Central Town Square Mall) in Cochrane.

We know that the arts play a huge role in building healthy communities and maintaining mental wellness. The COVID-19 crisis has illuminated the importance of the arts in our lives, as they have helped us all enormously to cope and deal with the difficult times we are living through. The arts connect, nourish and sustain us on a fundamental human level.

Now more than ever, it is important to support the growth and health of our local arts scene.  We could not be more proud of our grassroots Artist Collective Gallery project - the ROUTE 22 Gallery, and we sincerely hope you will join our journey.

As we work toward our gallery opening, we are seeking supporters of all kinds to join in making this collective venture a successful and sustainable reality for Cochrane.
