Art鈥檚 Nursery鈥檚 annual Scarecrow Festival will kick off this Saturday, Sept. 23, in an all-day event.
The family friendly fest will take place from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the nursery, located at 8940 192 Street.
The event will feature music, crafts and DIY demonstrations. Local vendors will also set up booths with artisan crafts and foods for festival-goers to enjoy.
And, of course, you鈥檙e welcome to tour the nursery to take in the creative and comical scarecrow collection. More than 50 Surrey and 91原创 businesses have sponsored scarecrows this year, and they can be found throughout Art鈥檚 Nursery from Sept. 23 until Oct. 31.
After you take in the scarecrows, perhaps you鈥檒l be inspired to visit the 鈥淏uild-a-Crow鈥 station, which will open on Saturday and run until Oct. 31. For a minimum $12 donation, community members are welcome to come on down and build their own scarecrow.
This year the scarecrows are supporting three charities: The Versatiles, a group of senior entertainers from Cloverdale that travels to seniors鈥 facilities in Surrey and 91原创 to perform comedy and musical acts; the , which provides animal therapy to at-risk youth; and , which supports programs and housing for people with developmental disabilities.
