Who We are

Linkes Local Arts is a independent Art Facility family located in the downtown core of Stayner, Ontario Canada. Opened in 2010 mainly as a art gallery, displaying and promoting local artists from Clearview Township as well as nearby communities. As the business grew owner/ artist Frieda Linke added a small art supplies section, which quickly expended as the demand for supplies increased. In 2016 Linkes Local Arts grew beyond the small storefront in which it first started, moving to a two story space down the street. Our gallery space was now 3 times the size, allowing room for many other artists from outside our area, even ones out of Province. The art supplies section now became a department separate from the gallery, allowing room for a wider variety of art materials. The second floor houses Frieda’s private office and art studio, plus a showcase room that doubles as a workshop and classroom. Frieda’s late husband Harry started up our framing department, producing his own unique framing system. Framing is now continued by Harry’s Grandson Willian Wager.
