The Municipality of Bluewater and the Bayfield and Area Chamber of Commerce have teamed up with TechAlliance of Southwestern Ontario to bring a digital program to Bayfield for the Christmas season.
TechAlliance Partnerships Director, Karen Chalmers, says the program is called 'The Most Local Time of the Year'.
It focuses on bringing community members together to identify and solve some of their local main street challenges.
“In our regional communities those things are foot traffic, lowered tourism experiences and shopping local. And because many Santa Claus parades have been cancelled, partaking in 'The Most Local Time of the Year', with the Engage Art app, is a safe and responsible way to enjoy time with the family,” said Chalmers.
“It is an augmented reality experience where you can walk along the sidewalk, and through your phone using the Engage Art app, you'll be able to engage in a joyful and interactive holiday experience," added Chalmers.
The 'Most Local Time of the Year' program will arrive in Bayfield on December 10th.
