No opera to be heard, or old or new masters' canvases there. And the performing arts on show involved cheery ladies on stilts or people wandering around in green dragon costumes.
Great fun though, and perfect for the Saturday shopping crowds in Hornsby.
There were in fact painting workshops going on for the kids, and several local arts and crafts groups were there to sell their wares and advertise their deeds.
Saturday's activities were just an introduction to the event proper.
There was music too, like that of this jazz band. Or from the very tall musical lady below.
The festival actually goes on for a month, I've just discovered, and there really is some serious culture and a range of creative enterprise planned. See http://www.hornsby.nsw.gov.au/my-lifestyle/arts-and-culture/festival-of-the-arts/festival-of-the-arts-2017-eoi
