With busy season upon us at Highbury Canco and a bounty of produce in area fields and orchards, it seemed appropriate that the theme for summer’s third Mill Street Market be Harvest, Place and Taste.Â
Accompanying the flavours of Leamington was live music from Andrew Taves, Dirt Country and the All Nighters Band, while historian Veronica Brown led her third downtown tour, this time with a focus on the 1960s until present day.
The Mill Street Market is jointly organized and presented by the Leamington Arts Centre, the Municipality of Leamington, the Uptown Leamington Business Improvement Area and The Bank Theatre.
A popular stop for many on the August 14th evening was the LAC portrait corner featuring local artist Todd Stahl. Different forms of caricature were offered by Stahl and he generously directed all proceeds back to the Leamington Arts Centre for upcoming programming.
