Arts on the Avenue in Ladysmith

Arts on the Avenue

Music and art -- what a combination and it's all free. Ladysmith's annual event will surprise you. The backdrop is downtown First Avenue beside heritage buildings. The artists are set up in large tents down the centre of the street. A hands-on art area for kids is a popular spot as well as a silent art auction. The live music and entertainment happens all day. Art demonstrations, art for sale -- all for the love of art.
