Music industry arts (MIA) alumna and winner of CTV’s The Launch Saveria (top) returned to the Western Fair as an I Love Local performer. Saveria attends the fair with her family every year, and got to achieve her goal of performing at the event. “This year is extra special for me and I hope it’s extra special for everyone else,” she said.

Local musician and second-year music industry arts (MIA) student Sarina Haggarty (bottom) performed a mix of cover songs like “Dreams” by Fleetwood Mac and her original songs such as “Obsessed” during I Love Local at the Western Fair. “It’s cool that the audience enjoys both and I’m lucky because it’s a pretty kind of busy time and it’s also beautiful weather,” Haggarty said to Interrobang in between her set. “So I’m really happy to be here another year.”
