Carleton Place Riverfront Artscape Returns Saturday, August 15, 2026 – A Celebration of Art and Music
The Carleton Place Gallery launched the first-ever Carleton Place Riverfront Artscape, a vibrant outdoor festival of locally with lovingly produced art, music and food on Saturday, August 16, 2025. It was held along the beautiful Mississippi riverside in Sinclair Square adjacent to the Gallery on 210 Bridge Street. Conceived and organized by Ginny Fobert, owner of the Carleton Place Gallery – which showcases local and regional artists year-round and is a hub for creativity in the Ottawa Valley – this brand-new community event brought together 32 top notch fine artists plus plein air painters and an anime portrait artist for a fabulous outdoor summer art show, complemented by food from Blue Spoon Atelier and El Patchos Tacos and a full day of live music.
The art fair was so successful we are going for year two. Riverfront Artscape 2026 is scheduled for Saturday, August 15, rain or shine.
“The Carleton Place Riverfront Artscape is all about building community and celebrating the incredible talent in and around Carleton Place,” says organizer Ginny Fobert. “We want residents and visitors to wander among the fine art, grab a bite, listen to live music, and truly soak in our vibrant culture alongside the beautiful Mississippi River.”
2026 promises to be even more exciting than 2025 with over 40 artists, live painting and demos and more! CKCU 93.1 fm will be broadcasting live from 10 am to 1 pm, followed by music by the Almonte Song Circle. Food Vendors include Pie Are Squared, Michelle's Icecream Carnival, Almonte Ottawa Valley Coffee, and Foodie Lu's Italian Street Food.
Mark your calendars now and join us on Saturday, August 15 for the Riverfront Artscape 2026! We can't wait!
