Support CAF

Cambridge Arts Festival began in September 1995 and has been a free annual event held in Cambridge every summer. Our goal is to provide a space for local emerging and established visual artists, musicians, and performers to share their talents with Cambridge and the surrounding communities. In 2014, CAF introduced a Maker Lab in response to the growing popularity of the creative Maker culture in Waterloo Region and beyond.

The festival is fully not-for-profit and is organized by a dedicated group of volunteers and supported in part by the City of Cambridge.  The festival is free to the public and all activities for children and adults are free.
