Paint a derby car highlights Port Perry Street Party and Culture Days in Scugog
Published September 19, 2022 at 9:31 am
If you believe there’s no party better than a paint party, Port Perry has you covered this weekend.
Paint a derby car is returning to downtown Port Perry this Saturday; an annual event that is a big part of Culture Days in Scugog and the Port Perry Street Party.
Participants get to take a “boring old car” and transform it with bright colours and fun designs. Grab a brush, let your creativity out, and make sure you’re wearing some clothes you don’t care much about because you’re going to get a little ‘painty’ in the process.
A portion of Queen Street will be closed to vehicle traffic from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. for Culture Day events and the Port Perry Street Party.
Culture Days is a celebration of arts and culture that takes place annually in communities across Canada during the last weekend of September.
