The ArtFarm board Articulturists (and friends) have been busy planning and preparing the grounds with fun filled work parties led by our straw boss Abraham van der Breggen! Our work party lunches have been a highlight this year as they were provided by Boston Pizza!


Forty artists booths, SpecialTea Coffee, Bee Raw, Cupcakes by Stephanie, live music from 12:45 p.m. - 8:00 p.m.


Take note of the following non-profit organizations that are fund raising at ArtFarm III. Come hungry! • Weyburn Youth Centre - BBQ • Wor-Kin Shop Heritage Pies • Prairie Sky Animal Shelter - animal treats


We do have resident animals, therefore we encourage you to leave yours at home. If you bring your dog, they must be on leash at all times and will attend at your own risk. (bring baggies)


This year we are offering FREE transportation on the hour every hour starting at 1:00 p.m. The vans will make a loop from the Weyburn City Mall, Bison Manor and Legion Towers. We have lots of parking as well as a golf cart to transport from your car to the admission gate for those that need it.


The Big Brothers and Big Sisters are manning our Kids Corral activities this year which include may pole, dance lessons, bubbles, clown, fence and pet rock painting (dress your kids paint appropriate!), face painting, horse petting and horse drawn wagon rides. All kids’ activities are FREE.


Make sure you get your raffle tickets! This year, the four original, pieces of art were donated by Max Himsl, Tina Hudson, Abraham van der Breggen and Simple with a Twist. Raffle tickets and t- shirts will be available at the event.
Join us for a beautiful day on the prairies!
