Things to do in Fredericton in the fall
Hey all, my husband and I will be in Fredericton in mid October and are looking for things to do for the 3 days we are there. Are there any fall activities in the area or tourists spots that are a must see? Also looking for recommendations for restaurants. Thanks!

"A gem of a place.
From the welcoming staff to the architecture and of course, the art, Gallery 78 was wonderful. There are numerous pieces and not a single space is wasted. Everywhere you look, there's another piece and a new story.
This is not a ticketed gallery, so no need to book anything, unless of course it's a special event, if which they hold many. They also offer payment plans, making regional art a bit more accessible to those who can't buy them outright. Everything about this place was very nice.
Gallery 78 was a fantastic pitstop on our walk around downtown Fredericton."

"Visiting from out of town my husband & I stepped into this lovely gallery one afternoon. That time became the highlight of our visit to Fredericton (which BTW was all around very nice). We were immediately made so very welcome by Germaine that we felt we could take our time really looking at all the art on display. So much beauty in one bright airy place!
Germaine answered all our questions with visible delight at sharing her knowledge. We loved that Gallery 78 represents a wide range of artists working in different medium. We very much enjoyed a visit to the on-site studio of one of the painters. The only hard part was leaving it all behind knowing we live too far away to return regularly."

"Terrific gallery featuring many New Brunswick's talented artists. Extraordinary collections. Gallery 78 is my go to gallery despite the fact that I have lived much of my life outside of Canada and a good portion in Ontario. Shipped items are packaged safely…never a problem. The owner Germaine and Kim are knowledgeable and never flag when I want to see more and more! Highly recommend.
For tourists it is just across the street from the renowned Beaverbrook Art Gallery."
