Hi there, I'm Ally. Welcome to our Main Street, where we are authentic and eclectic. 


I am thrilled that you are interested in joining my tour to discover the incredible art and stories along Main Street in the North End of Niagara Falls. To get started, we will discuss the makings of Niagara Falls - who was here, how did we grow, what happened in the past two centuries, and how we share those stories today through art and creativity. On my tour, I will show you local establishments of the past, present and even the future that are the foundation of the spaces where art resides. From lemon tarts by a family making the best baked goods on this side of the Niagara River to unique spices and welcoming vibes of the South Asian community, you will get to know the community who brings their ideas, perspectives and culture to the art along Main Street. 


We will discover art in many forms, from grassroots collaborative projects to large scale murals that dot the landscape of this former commercial hub of our City. Niagara Falls and I are both of the rust belt region, and my knowledge of what it means to build, rebuild and build again, is woven throughout the experience. Together, we will discover beauty and resilience in the smallest of openings, and we will dream big about what Niagara Falls is and can be, and ask: what inspiration will you take home with you?
