The Cambridge Poppy Project
The Cambridge Poppy Project is a community art project of Remembrance using hand-made poppies lovingly created and donated by people living in and around Cambridge and also from Ontario, almost every Province in Canada, and throughout the world, to honour our Veterans.
The knitted and crocheted poppies will be displayed on the interior and exterior of the Queen's Square Branch of the Idea Exchange building in Galt and also on the outside of the
Preston and Hespeler Idea Exchange locations and several other locations throughout Cambridge.
We invite you to take the Poppy Tour and visit all of our locations.
Most can be viewed from your car.
A full list of sites can be found here
Our goal in collecting the poppies was to thank and recognize all of our area Veterans and those military personnel who are currently serving our country.
Additional information on soldiers from our area can be found
on this page.
THANK YOU!
Our goal was 10,000 poppies and you helped us to collect more than 33,000!
You have exceeded our expectations with your support and love for our Veterans
We are currently in the process of assembling the installations and getting them ready
for display from October 29 - Nov 12th.
We hope that you will take the Poppy Tour and view all of the various installations throughout Cambridge.
