The City of Mississauga is pleased to share news about cultural events taking place in Mississauga throughout March. The City’s Culture Division is offering two unique programs with many virtual events and safe, outdoor in-person activities, all in accordance with Provincial COVID guidelines.

Walks of Art (Feb. 24 – March 21)

Using the GooseChase App to guide you, the #WalksofArt series, presented by TD Canada, offers several fun and safe ways to get outside and explore animated sites in downtown Mississauga and at the Bradley Museum.

Through #WalksofArt, you can:

  • Take a self-guided tour to see more than 25 works of permanent and temporary Public Art across Mississauga, featuring emerging and renowned artists from around the world.
  • Find your inner child as you explore the wonder of winter with the Snowball Scavenger Hunt at Mississauga Celebration Square.

  • Walk, jump or dance your way into Mississauga Celebration Square as you discover artful installations including the market trellis light display, Walk this Way, and an immersive photo op presented by TD that will transport you to the Aurora Borealis. Although the weather is warmer, don’t forget to strike a pose at the Square’s Freeze Frame presented by Bell Canada.
