Hop on the ArtBus and discover the creative side of downtown! ArtBus is a free, all-ages, one-day event that takes riders across downtown Edmonton to galleries and artist-run centres via special ETS buses. On Saturday, March 21st, hop on at any designated Art Stop across downtown Edmonton to experience art, get creative with hands-on activities, and shop local. The ETS ArtBuses run in a continuous loop between 9 participating galleries for an easy way to connect people and art downtown. Three chartered ETS ArtBuses will run the route from 12 - 5 pm to pick up and drop off participants at each Art Stop, free-of-charge. A vibrant network of downtown art galleries is yours to explore!
