The arts festival CK on the Edge is coming back to Chatham-Kent this summer and will be working with an innovation centre called The Ground Floor.

A grant from the Ontario Trillium Foundation is providing $71,000 in funding, and a project coordinator, Nicole Fricot has been hired.

She says this year the CK on the Edge will be a little different from the one held in 2010.  ”It’s looking like it’s going to be a festival goes all summer.”

She says plans for both the festival and for the Ground Floor are still being formed, but the Ground Floor is expected to be a centre of entrepreneurs to work on innovation and collaboration.
