It was a fun, entertaining day for the whole family and community. Here’s what some of the vendors had to say about the event and what inspires them:
“Great venue, a lot of people coming out, a lot of great artists out here today, absolutely a fun day. My Muse, just looking at a piece of stone that we purchased and a lot of the times the stone will tell us what’s hidden inside and just take it out.”
Barry Kostiuk - Stone Sharper Studios
“All the people been wondering around, a lot of smiling faces and my Muse is just having fun and Love, everything in Love that’s my motto.”
Matt Rowland- FOOR Photography & Design
“The Community getting together. I’ve lived here for 20 years now and I’ve never seen such a good amount of different people getting together at one point, seeing all what the community has and seeing what everyone has to offer. There’s so much here and a lot of people don’t realize how much everyone has to give back to the community.”

“Everybody leaves with a smile on their face”

“Making something that relates to people” is his Muse
Perry Parker- Illustrator
“Everybody getting together as a community and everybody supporting local people instead of going to commercial stores. They can come here and buy stuff for their walls, things that are handmade, local and reclaimed. It’s nice to see everyone turn out, lots of fun, lots of different things.”
Barbara Balanko - Bee Leaf, Cakes, Sweets & Treats
“Talking to all the people who have come out to look at the art and everyone is very friendly, very positive and I’m getting such good comments. People are buying a few pieces too so that’s great. This is my first ever participation in an Art Walk and I’m 70 years old. So I’ve waited a long time but this is amazing.”
