Car Free Day New West
12:00pm -08:00pm
Car Free Day coming to New West August 6, with great music, food and fun for all ages!
Car Free Day New West presented by TransLink, is pleased to make its debut on Columbia Street this summer, taking place Saturday August 6, 2022 from 12pm to 8pm.
The festival will feature four stage areas programmed with local recording artists, plus dance groups, family friendly entertainers and more! The renowned Columbia StrEAT Food Truck Fest will be featured as a delicious new zone at Car Free Day.
This is the first annual Car Free Day New West, brought to you by the Downtown New West BIA and the City of New Westminster, providing FREE family fun and activities for all to enjoy! The event will take place along Columbia Street, between 4th and 8th in New Westminster, and the street will become a pedestrian paradise filled with vendors, food trucks, exhibitors and interactive elements!
“Car Free Day New West is an exciting evolution from Columbia StrEAT Food Truck Fest” says Kendra Johnston, Executive Director at the Downtown New West BIA, “We’ve learned over the years that events need to evolve, grow and change in order to stay relevant, so after a forced 2 year break due to COVID, this was the time to rethink everything. After much consideration, we have decided that now is the time to try something new. Hence our decision to move forward with Car Free Day, which will still involve some food trucks, but be much more focused on sustainability and community.”
Offering more than just great music and family entertainment, Car Free Day New West offers a chance to learn more about the future of transportation in our region.
“TransLink is committed to providing continued new and improved services to help reduce the high volume of single occupant vehicles as we approach this critical new era of climate change” says TransLink CEO Kevin Quinn. “Everyone has to do their part to choose alternative transportation so we can reduce congestion and improve air quality. Car Free Day is a great way to share these important messages.”
We are encouraging local participation from musicians, vendors, community groups and individuals.
See the event's website above for application information, and check back here for updated event information in the coming weeks.

Paint and Beer Workshop
06:00pm -08:30pm
Come on down to Steel and Oak brewery for some beers and explore the artist within you as you paint with the guidance of local artist, Clarissa Banos. Originally from San Salvador, El Salvador, Clarissa now works from a cozy home studio right here in New Westminster. They produce incredibly colourful artwork that is inspired by their ancestral heritage and have a passion for the magnificent indigenous civilizations of the Ancient Americas. They also pay tribute to the beauty, strength and resilience of indigenous Latin American women through their artwork.
Clarissa will be leading a guided workshop that will introduce participants to simple drawing and painting techniques as well as basic colour theory. This will be 2.5 hour workshop that will be a very fun and enjoyable experience, where self expression and artistic exploration becomes far more important than technical proficiency, resulting in a piece that participants feel happy with and proud to bring home!
Included in the workshop will be:
- One free beer
- All the materials necessary to produce your art piece
- Guidance from an expert
- A fun and creative experience
At Steel and Oak's aim is to create an inclusive space for all that celebrates our local community. Register for an evening of learning, creativity and community! Tickets are $45 - register by August 14 at the provided URL.

August 31 is International Overdose Awareness Day. A vigil will be taking place on August 31, from 6:00 pm to 7:30 pm at Hyack Square, beside Kelly O'Bryan's Restaurant and near New Westminster SkyTrain Station. Let's join together to show support for those impacted, to remember loved ones lost and help prevent overdoses. To find an event in your community see: www.overdoseday.com
There is no easy one size solution, but much that society can do better to help those struggling. Many impacted by addiction experience stigma, judgement, lack of support, and lack of any evidence based addiction support in the health care system. There is much that can be improved. Let's build on the growing movement for positive change. See Facebook page for more specific event details.
