The old locks are new again. Celebrate the rededication of the locks and a festival celebrating the canal with art, music, food, beer and wine. This two day event features a special one day art museum, narrated tours, an expanded community market and performance art.

There is a call for artists for the one day art museum. Art must be related to the Erie Canal or the locks, and all mediums are welcome. Forward an electronic copy image of your artwork to ellen [at] sweetriderentals [dot] com.

Volunteers are needed to help work the beer tent on Saturday. Contact Heather B. Peck, Program Manager, at 716.434.0212 to volunteer for Locktoberfest.
