Recently I participated in Kingston’s Art After Dark in the downtown core. Below is a list of the details of the event as well as the wheelchair accessibility of each participating location. **Some of the locations had small lips at the entrance so I noted whether I thought a manual or power chair could manage the height. It is completely a personal opinion.**.
Take a walk from 7:00pm to 10:00pm on Friday, May 25 and check out some of the best original pieces of art in Kingston! Paintings, sculpture, glass, pottery, jewelry and more will be on display (and ready to buy!).
