25 on 25 Uxbridge Street Party - Wild day of fun in Uxbridge

It is absolutley crazy the number of NEW ideas that we are introducing during the upcoming Celebration of the Arts 25th Anniversary year - and here is another one.

How about "25 on 25"? I know what you are saying - you are saying "Huh" or "What" or even "Whaaa" but I do promise you, it will be a fun filled family day right in Uxbridge town on Saturday, September 25th. So it is "25 on 25 Uxbridge Street Party".

Let me tell you more about it - Working together, the Celebration of the Arts, the shops of Uxbridge, and the Uxbridge Studio Tour Artists are organising an amazing Street Party to celebrate 25 years of absurdly rich cultural life in Uxbridge.

The theme is The Senses: and we are inviting everyone to come and see, hear, smell, touch, taste and explore that elusive sixth sense.

Experience the knitted tree cosies… Eat crazy Ted Reader's world famous sliders…put your sense of smell to the test… and watch as a team of creative Uxbridge folk rehab one of the downtown buildings!

Interactive events, competitions and a parade will bring everybody a myriad of sensory experiences: tasting delicious local foods cooked by local chefs; music and poetry performed on the street; incredible art installations by our fine local artists; sensational smells; the sixth sense – a lot of us think we have one, but what is it and can we access it on demand? And everyone is invited to explore the sense of touch with hands-on events – drawings and making many interesting fun things.

Some of the things that we can potentially expect to see - Speakers Corner, Performance Art, Storytelling, Noise Maker Parade, Chefs, Painting River, Singers, Sounds Experiment and so much more. BUT we do want more ideas to consider. If you have an idea, or wish to perhaps participate during the day - please contact flyfree@sympatico.ca or submit in paper to Blue Heron Books. But hurray, this needs to be confirmed very quickly.

See I told you it was going to be so exciting and new.
