Art Hop Highlights The Essence Of Burlington's South End

Once a not-so-mod neighborhood with hulking and empty factories and processing plants, the South End of Burlington is seeing much better days.

Thanks to the influx of artists, art galleries and new creative businesses in the last 30 years, plus the South End Art Hop -- which entices tens of thousands of visitors to explore and purchase art and meet the artists -- the South End is thriving.

Adam Brooks, the executive director of the South End Arts and Business Association or SEABA, came to the VPR Colchester studios to talk about what makes the district unique, about the event itself and about how having art so accessible is important to a community.

This year the Art Hop runs from Friday, Sept. 5 through Sunday, Sept. 7. Click here for more details about South End Art Hop and here to find out about SEABA's Art Under The Influence series.

Audio from this conversation will be posted at approximately 5:00 p.m. on Thursday, Aug. 28.
