A little taste of Nashville at Mill Street Market

Stetsons, suede ropers and complimentary bandanas were proudly on display at the summer’s third Mill Street Market held on a steamy August 8th evening. 

Presented by the Leamington Arts Centre, the Municipality of Leamington, the Uptown Leamington BIA and The Bank Theatre, the market celebrated everything country & western with a horse petting zoo, the twangy sounds of Slim Pickerel and The All Nighters Band, some crowd-pleasing line dancing and tangy barbecue offerings for those feeling peckish.

For those who have yet to get out to a Mill Street Market, a final opportunity arises with their last market on Friday, September 12 themed 1980s Glow Party.

Slim Pickerel had the tallest cowboy at the market movin’ and a groovin’ as they jammed in Shotton Park.
