Creative Grove is a meeting place, market, art experiment and scene that involves the public, promotes art and culture, and builds community space as a forum for dialogue and exchange. A destination and place to relax, play and express yourself.

Each week a presentation of an artist, craft or a school project will explain the detail(s) of the art or craft, educate the public and bring creative process to the consumer's awareness.
