Retail Partners
The Drift is a festival that clearly demonstrates how artists, working together with local businesses and residents, make such an enormous contribution to our community. Over its first four years the Drift has attracted thousands of visitors to Main Street from all over the Lower Mainland and beyond, showcased over 200 established and emerging artists and involved the creative efforts of many local businesses and volunteers.
The retailers listed here recognize the immense value of collaboration with the local art community. We thank them for their support!
