The Robson Valley Arts & Culture Council hosted a two day event, Arts in the Garden Fraser Heritage Festival 2022, designed to help showcase the gardens of residents from Dome Creek to Dunster. This ticketed event allowed 50 participants each day to visit with the gardeners and see what they had to offer. Nine gardens were visited over the course of the two days. Each day’s experience included a luncheon where the visitors re energized for the rest of the day’s tour.
