Since March 2020, people in the Eastern Townships have had very few opportunities to participate in arts and cultural events due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic.
However, after being cancelled in July last year, the Festival des Arts is back this weekend in Georgeville and Fitchbay, presenting its 18th edition on Saturday, July 17 until Sunday, July 25, 2021.
Bright and colourful panels will clearly display the routes that visitors can follow to reach both sites throughout the 20-km circuit which follows the picturesque country roads, mountains and lakes in Stanstead Township.
