The Cathedral Village Art Festival

Artesian Performing Arts
A not-for-profit arts organization
Kiosks offering crafts, clothes, jewellery, woodwork and art work lined both sides of 13th Avenue at the close of this annual Art Festival. I began my stroll at the Artesian Performing Art Centre drawn along by the aromas of all manner of foods offered from food trucks and tents. Music from buskers filled the air on this lovely day to stroll along with crowds of families and friends ~ complete with toddlers in strollers snacking on goodies; well behaved dogs on leashes. Before turning around and heading home, I ducked into a coffee shop for a sit-down and coffee, air-conditioning and a table to lean on. Then home while perusing the kiosks on the other side of the street. A sterling silver ring and a pottery dessert bowl were my only purchases to find their way into my backpack. I was going to stop at the ice cream store just before turning to home, but the lineup was just too long. Ice cream will have to wait to another day.
