Great music, great food and more on tap at Water Valley Arts and Music Festival

The second edition of the Water Valley Arts and Music Festival hopes to hit all of the right notes this weekend.

Director Arya Ahmadi points out that it starts at 6pm on Friday, August 21st at the Fallentimber Meadery grounds and continues through until 6pm on Sunday, August 23rd. Ahmadi says “our goal is to gather community members around – and anyone that loves arts and music – to give them a place where they can spend the weekend, enjoy some great music, great food and see some of the work that the Alberta arts do and overall, welcome people to our community.”

He adds, it will include county, rock, blues, electronic and more. Weekend or daily passes are available and you can see the full line up online on the Water Valley Arts and Music Festival website – WVAMF.ca.
