WE KNOW RIDGEWAY
WELCOME TO Ridgeway
Ridgeway is a close-knit tranquil community just to the west of Fort Erie’s original town boundary. Its historic downtown along Ridge Road is a magnet for locals and tourists alike, with quaint boutiques like J.E. harper & Co. Travel Supply, Three Ferrises and Lasting Impressions. The main street also features galleries, shops, spas, eateries, and other services. It’s a historic setting with a modern feel. The Sanctuary Centre for the Arts is a community-based hub for the artists, located in an old church which today houses the Brimstone Brewing Co. craft brewery and Crave local fresh, a farm-to-table restaurant. Brimstone’s flagship brew Sinister Minister is available all year round as well as limited releases, collaborations, and seasonal favourites. The Sanctuary also features performing art shows, art classes and eclectic events such as an Art Battle live painting competition, where artists compete to create their best work possible in a mere 20-minutes. Spectators are not only free to move around the venue and observe the artists’ progress, they also take part in voting for the winning works of art. The nearby Ridge Film House offers a unique movie-going experience, complete with an in-house bar, luxury seating and carefully curated films. The cinema boasts the best independent, foreign classic and second-run films. Whether you’re a casual film-goer or a dedicated movie buff, it’s a fantastic opportunity to discover hidden gems, or rediscover the classics once again!
