Sad news from the Strathearn Art Walk team:
Hey Everyone,
It is with a heavy heart that we must announce the cancellation of the Strathearn Art Walk 2020 due to COVID-19.
Simply put – due to current Alberta Health Services recommendations and regulations, and the evolving situation regarding the current health crisis, it is neither safe nor prudent for us to move forward with planning this year’s Strathearn Art Walk.
The health and safety of our artists, patrons, vendors, sponsors, partners, and volunteers will always be our #1 priority. Our thanks go out to you all for your continued commitment to not only us, but also to the Edmonton arts community. We would not exist without you.
We started the year with the belief that supporting arts and creativity would be more important than ever in 2020. While we, like so many others, would have never guessed we would be in the position our world is in now, we will remain committed to finding ways to support artists and the arts community this year.
Now is the time to be smart, look out for one another, keep washing those hands, and remember that as a city and a community, we will all get through this together. We encourage everyone to continue to listen to health officials, be safe, and be excited for when we will all be together, in person, again.
We are interested in hearing from you about how we can best support you in this time. Let us know if you have any ideas about this.
We send all of you our love and support, and can’t wait to see you all in September 2021.
– Team Art Walk
