Straight Outta Collinwood

Today marks the 12th year for the annual Waterloo Arts Festival, and this Collinwood street festival has become bigger than ever. With more than 100 vendors and artists and eight stages hosting various bands, this is a great way to spend the afternoon. Food will be available from various food trucks and guests are invited to participate in art workshops, run by Arts Alive, to create their own masterpieces. It all starts at noon and runs until about 7 p.m. For a full listing of the bands and activities, go to the website. (Trenholme) artscollinwood.org.
