Art Walk 2018

Sur l'île de Protection les énergies créatives sont multiples. Juste avant le temps des fêtes les créateurs artistiques offrent leurs produits à tous les membres de notre communauté, ainsi qu'aux visiteurs, en organisant une randonnée autour de l'île. Nous appelons cela le "Art Walk" (marche des arts).

Protection Island, with it's tiny population, has a high pourcentage of creative people. In time for the Holiday Season, beginning of December, the Art Walk is organized. The focal point is Beacon House. But also 12 residences where guests can go, admire and buy beautiful products.


Le point de départ, qui peut aussi bien être le point médian ou la finale, se situe au "Beacon House", notre centre communautaire, à la pointe sud de notre petit territoire. Il y avait, cette année, 12 autres endroits ouverts aux intéressés, soit les résidences des artistes et artisans.

Beacon House

I would like to name the participants who offered their creations but I am sure my leaking memory would not permit a perfect list......... Let's see some photos instead.
