With West Vancouver’s Harmony Arts Festival in full swing this weekend, make sure to hit its Fresh St. Art Market, a fantastic place to find one-of-a-kind paintings, photographs, jewellery, glasswork, and much, much more in a gorgeous setting under tents. The market runs on both weekends of the festival, from Friday to Sunday (August 1 to 3) and then again from August 8 to 10, along the waterfront on Argyle Avenue between 14th and 17th streets.

Participating artists include Leanne Christie, whose expressive brushstrokes in soothing grey scales expressively capture our local cityscapes. (See her Just Off Granville, here.) Elsewhere, find woodworker Jeff Trigg’s simple, timeless furnishings and Tania Gleave’s natural jewellery line, integrating materials like linen or stones. Other visual-arts events happen throughout the fest, with ArtSpeaks artist talks and workshops at the Ferry Building Gallery and more.
