CreativeHub 1352 is a non-profit organization dedicated to bringing creative people together to strengthen arts, culture, and community in Mississauga. Through collaborations with local partners, we offer a diverse range of year-round programs in the arts, heritage, and environmental stewardship and education, engaging people from across the city and beyond.

Our journey began with the Lakeview Legacy Community Foundation, later known as the Small Arms Society, which led the successful effort in 2008 to save the historic Small Arms Inspection Building (SAIB) from demolition. Since 2018, CreativeHub 1352 has worked with the City of Mississauga to transform this landmark into a vibrant community hub. As the building's lead tenant and key partner, we continue to expand our programming days each year, bringing our creative vision to life in this unique and historic space.
