The James Bay Art Walk at the start of September was awesome. Alissa and I both agree that it was our best morning in Victoria thus far.
The local artists of James Bay open there homes and studios to the public to display and sell their art. The houses were marked with brightly painted yellow shoes and they were all within a walking distance of each other.
It was super cool to drink coffee and chat with the artists in their ridiculously gorgeous homes.
On our way back we checked out the Classic Boat Festival in Inner Harbour from a far.
The next weekend was the Great Canadian Beer Festival . Cousin Jacob managed to wrangle up some free tickets to this mega popular and difficult to get into event.
It features ONLY microbreweries from around the globe. No big names here. No wine, no coolers, just the real deal!
Brooklyn Brewery- Pennant 55 Ale (USA), Farmhand- Cellar Dweller Cast Conditioned Ale (Victoria), Steamworks Brewing- Great Pumpkin Ale (Vancouver), Salt Springs Island Ales- Golden Ale (Salt Spring Island).
There were probably more that we liked but the night kinda got out of hand...
