On June 5th, Matilda Gallery & Art Bar will once again be transformed into a celebration of Stratford’s creative community, featuring works by more than 50 Stratford artists in the second largest SAT exhibition since the very first takeover.This year’s featured exhibition by Adam VanderHeide continues his Art Warriors series, an abstract fantasy-inspired body of work rooted in comic book imagery and contemporary conversations surrounding creativity and AI. Created through layered mixed media on hand-prepared wood panels, the series imagines Stratford as the setting for a battle between artistic expression and invading AI forces, celebrating the enduring importance of the creative process and the artist’s hand.
In conjunction with the exhibition opening, Matilda Gallery & Art Bar will also be celebrating its 3rd Anniversary with special birthday art deals, and celebratory surprises throughout the evening.
Join us Friday, June 5th from 5:30 PM onward to meet the artists, experience the exhibition, and celebrate another incredible year of Stratford art and community.
Stratford Artists Takeover 4.0 runs until July 12th, 2026.
