If These Walls Could Talk - Walking Tours

A walking tour through the ever-changing landscape of art on one of the oldest streets in Edmonton.

Journey with Arts on the Ave and uncover one-of-a-kind works of art and historical landmarks in the Alberta Avenue district! The history of our neighbourhood is rich with exciting thinkers and creators whose works have transformed and impacted our community.

Discover this corner of Edmonton with its diverse cultures and its longstanding pillars of the community. This tour has been curated by a team of people dedicated to the art you'll see, the artists behind the art, and the history of 118th Avenue.

Some tips and hints to make your tour with us more comfortable:

  • Dress in Layers

  • Wear comfortable walking shoes/runners

  • Bring sunscreen and a water bottle

We would appreciate tour guests arriving at The Carrot Community Arts Coffee House, located at 9351 118 Ave NW, 15 mins before the scheduled tour start time to make sure you pick up your complimentary muffin and drink. If you have questions about your registration, please contact us at (780) 471-1580.

We look forward to seeing you!
