Strathearn Art Walk and Music Festival
The Strathearn Art Walk is a celebration of local artists and the community as a whole. At its thirteenth year running this year, you’ll get to see some and shop for beautiful art pieces and incredibly fun musical performances.
Festivalgoers won’t go hungry, with a mix of food trucks offering everything from tacos and Thai to gelato and waffles. Drift Food Truck & Eatery, Meat Street Pies, and The Icecream Truck are among the lineup. Local breweries and distilleries, including Sea Change Brewing Co., Ale Architect, and Lone Pine Distilling, will be serving drinks throughout the event.
