Join us this Saturday, July 31, for the Sidewalking Arts Spectacular! The streets of Uptown and Five Corners, White Rock, will be livelier than ever, with street performances to amaze and delight from 11 am to 3 pm at a variety of outdoor venues. One of the performers this weekend is the excellent Paul Silveria!

Paul Silveria is a musician, dance caller, teacher, and community organizer who has connection at the heart of his work. His presence on stage is warm and comfortable bringing the audience into a close circle.

His show can include heartfelt originals, playful interactive moments, community dance, visual delight, and classic old time tunes paired with the stories behind them. Originally from Portland Oregon, and now living in Vancouver BC, Paul has been performing, teaching, and calling dances across the west for more than 15 years. We can hardly wait to welcome him to White Rock!

This Saturday, July 31, it's the first Sidewalking

This Saturday, July 31, it's the first Sidewalking Arts Spectacular! From 11 am to 3 pm at a variety of outdoor venues in the Uptown and Five Corners districts of White Rock, enjoy a variety of amazing performers. One very special performer will be Rowan Lipkovits!

Accordionist extraordinaire Rowan Lipkovits tells us he "deviously employs the unbearable tension of cognitive dissonance to slip in a few quiet moments of strange beauty before continuing on in his endless campaign to turn the entire canon of popular music inside-out with the tireless assistance of his breathless squeezebox." Trust us - he's talking about fun!

When he's not serenading the streets of White Rock you can find this co-founder of the Accordion Noir radio program sharing his offbeat viral arrangements in the weekly "Stupid Accordion Tricks" social media series, delighting and baffling audiences globally from YouTube to TikTok.

We've got more details to come on the Sidewalking Arts Spectacular, so [please keep checking back here or on our Facebook page! - Jeremy

Ice Cream on East Beach!. There’s just something

Ice Cream on East Beach!. There’s just something about the beach and ice cream that pairs so perfectly together! So it's no surprise that White Rock has its fair share of amazing ice cream places, including wonderful choices on East Beach like 50 Flavours Ice Cream, Heaven's Angels Gelato & Gifts, Leieve Tea - Love Tea, Famous Rome Ice Cream, and Aloha Beach Picnic.

East Beach is beloved for its relaxed seaside atmosphere and laid-back style, meaning fewer lines and more ice cream to choose from.
