A History of Peake Street Collective presented by Donnalee Downe

The Peake Street Collective was established in 2005 when ten Prince Edward Island artists began regularly exhibiting new works in a former garage space attached to a private home in Charlottetown.
The grass roots collective’s current 163 artist members are diverse in terms of experience. While the majority are established and emerging artists, the group also recognizes the importance of fostering the growth of pre-emerging, first-time exhibitors. To this end, Peake Street shows are not juried and artists automatically become members when they participate in group exhibitions or artist challenges.
This video is an overview of the collective's history, presented by Peake Street founder and current project coordinator, Donnalee Downe.
