Village of Burns Lake Art Walk Project

The Village of Burns Lake plans to apply for funding for an “Art Walk” program that will take place in the spring and summer of 2020 (dates to be determined). An “Art Walk” is a self guided tour that features displays of visual and performing arts from local artists, hands-on activities, live artist demonstrations, workshops, a live art auction and a delicious menu of food and beverages in partnership with local downtown businesses. If you are interested in helping to plan this event, or have some ideas to contribute, please contact Economic Development Officer Lorie Watson at the Village Office at 250-692-7587, or email Lorie at: lwatson@burnslake.ca. Planning sessions for the Art Walk will begin in early fall.
