Arts on the Road 2015

Thank you to everyone who came out to Arts on the Road 2015!

This year was bigger than ever with 273 student artists from 5 schools, 63 performers and 25 business partners all coming together to celebrate the arts in our community.

With special guests like Dwayne Morgan and Rebel Coast, this was definitely a day to remember!  

See you all next year!
