Art in the Yard is back for its ninth year.
Art lovers and curious day trippers visit the two-acre Centre for the Arts.
The show is July 9 and 10 between 10am and 5pm, rain or shine.
If looking for a special piece or a unique gift, the originals only showcase will give ample choice, from fine painting and jewellery making to photography, ceramics and woodwork. Artists will be on hand to answer questions.
Art in the Yard is enhanced with live musical performances and refreshments.
Take in an historical tour of the grounds and see the fine artwork of the Harris Collective and Brandon Vickerd’s exhibition in the Minarovich Gallery.
This year, a Heritage Canada Building Communities Through Arts and Heritage grant is supporting the event and the Grand River Agriculture Society sponsors the popular children’s creativity area, a supervised place for children of all ages, where they can contribute to a community art project or work on solo pieces.
Admission is $3 for adults; children are welcome free. Proceeds go to the continued art programming at the Elora Centre for the Arts. It is located on the corner of Melville and Mill Streets in Elora. For more information, visit www.eloracentreforthearts.ca.
