Local creators can now apply to join the 2026 Garden and Art Tour in Selkirk, Manitoba, a one-day event that brings together local art and gardening. The tour allows residents to visit different spots in the community to see plants while meeting local makers and sellers. It is designed as a way for the community to enjoy the summer season while supporting local creative growth.
According to the Small Vendors of Manitoba, applications are open for artists and vendors who want to showcase their work this year. This is a chance for creators to connect directly with residents and sell their work in a local setting. The call for participants is part of the early planning phase for the upcoming summer season.
The Red River North Tourism region, which includes Selkirk, St. Andrews, and St. Clements, has hosted this annual event since 2018. It is a self-guided experience where people travel at their own pace to view regional talent and local gardens. The tour has become a regular part of the summer for people living in the Red River North area.
Information from the City of Selkirk shows the tour historically highlights the area’s scenic landscapes and artistic talent. The event blends horticultural beauty with local artisan displays to promote the region. The 2026 event will continue this tradition of bringing residents together to celebrate local creativity.
