Cotton Factory, The Doors Open Hamilton Region
- In-person Doors Open Ontario
- Digital Doors Open Icon Ontario
The Imperial Cotton Factory, built in 1900, ran as a factory until 1972. It has been repurposed as the largest creative hub in the Hamilton area — with studios for artists, artisans, musicians, craftspeople and entrepreneurs. Film and television productions, photographers and special events are also drawn here. This is one of the best examples of adaptive reuse in Hamilton.
