The Route 22 Artist Collective Gallery has a new home in Cochrane's Historic Downtown that will be open just in time for Cochrane Light Up, Nov. 23.

"Right now, we have our gallery full of busy elves getting everything set up and hung and I think we're on track to open our doors for Light Up," says gallery executive director Lara Kruger.
