SUMMARY:Leaf No Trace: Overnight Kids Nature Camp
DESCRIPTION:The plants that surround us are full of possibilities; they can be food\, building materials\, habitats\, dyes\, decorations\, and more. But with the guidance of multidisciplinary artist Isaac Forsland\, this course will explore the chemical possibilities of plants and their processing powers. From cyanotype printing to foraging materials for eco-developing\, the plants we pass every day will be transformed into tools for creating an image. On an overnight hike to Groundhog Mountain\, participants will spend an evening in the forest\, photographing the trip\, and developing 35mm film along the way\, for a complete journey in and with the forest. \nThis Camp will run from 9:00 am – 2:30 pm for the first two days with the overnight occurring on the 3rd day of the camp. \nThis program costs $60 valued at $20 per day. \nNature Camp Packing List \nOvernight Hike Packing List

SUMMARY:The Fugitives
DESCRIPTION:The Fugitives are an acoustic folk-roots group headed by songwriters Adrian Glynn and Brendan McLeod. They’re joined by banjo player Chris Suen (Viper Central) and violinist Carly Frey (The Coal Porters). Over their first five albums\, they’ve amassed a JUNO nomination\, numerous CFMA and WCMA nominations\, and toured extensively through Canada\, Europe\, and the UK. Performance highlights include most major Canadian folk festivals\, a slot at Glastonbury\, and a tour opening for Buffy Sainte-Marie. In 2020\, the band created “Ridge”\, a WW1-centered theatre show\, which was named a Globe & Mail “Top Arts Pick of the Year”\, and has toured to over 30 theatres across Canada. The band has earned a reputation for unforgettable live shows\, brimming with complex harmonies\, infectious storytelling and top-notch musicianship. As the CBC has it: “This show is simply brilliant.” \n“The four part vocals are sensational…each of these Fugitives has the talent\, voice and charisma to front their own band.” — Edmonton Sun \n“Despite their all-acoustic lineup\, the Fugitives bring enough energy to the stage to light up a small city… The East Van quartet conjures up a sound that’s like the missing link between Leonard Cohen\, the Pogues\, and the immortal Shorty Shitstain.” — Georgia Straight

SUMMARY:Ghostly Hounds and the Dang Package
DESCRIPTION:Get ready for a local concert with amazing music by Ghostly Hounds and The Dang Package.\nOn Wednesday August 16th\, 2023 located at the Sunset Theatre\, Wells\, BC. Doors open at 7:30 pm and the show starts at 8:00 pm.\nGet your tickets in advance here:\nhttps://support-imarts.com/tickets-registration/houndsandpackage?fbclid=IwAR29o-1qwO0PKf-OpmTP6jVyHB9cAO8y5p2ko1C4YlcTj1EF2YkiOorTVmU \nThank you to the Province of BC\, Creative BC\, and Canada Council for supporting our live event programming. \nThe Dang Package is credited as your cool Aunt’s favourite band 🙂\nDuring the great isolation\, through chemical and electronic alchemy\, The Dang Package discovered a mutual affection for the unknown\, the spectacle of space travel\, the anomaly between sound and contentment; and all which eternally bind them. \nGhostly Hounds is the folk project of Francesca Mirai\, singer-songwriter and banjo player based out of S\,DÁYES/ Pender Island\, BC. With a background in classical\, jazz and punk\, Francesca has become known for their unique vocals. They captivate their audience with a clear\, soaring range\, powerful projection and just the right amount of grit\, coalescing elegantly with traditional and modern banjo instrumentals. Formed in Tiohtià:ke/ Montréal and often on the road\, Ghostly Hounds has toured this project all over the country delivering hundreds of performances from coast-to-coast.\nFrancesca’s deeply personal song writing\, with focus on themes of love and grief\, has evoked adoration from listeners across Canada and the United States. Their skill as a songwriter\, the intimacy and vulnerability of their songs\, and their original and soulful arrangements have earned Ghostly Hounds enduring and enthusiastic support from their fans. Ghostly Hounds’ sophomore album\, In The Rubble\, released September 10th 2022.

SUMMARY:Exhibit Opening: Sensibilities of Place
DESCRIPTION:Sensibilities of Place is a conversation between self and place. An exploration of relationships between the environment\, systems\, people\, and those houses within. Conversations that connect the material with the abstract\, and the observed and the direct. The work manifest through bearing witness and being witnessed. These notions culminate physically in text and textiles.  The installation is an invitation to meander. \nThe artist will be in Wells creating site specific components prior to the opening on August 31st.

SUMMARY:Artist Bookmaking with Cat Sivertsen
DESCRIPTION:September 2nd\, 2023 \n10 a.m – 2 p.m \nAges 13+ \nRegister by August 19th. \nPay what you can + Mandatory $15.00 Materials Fee (suggested $35.00 total) \nAn artist’s book is a book created by an artist and not a biography of an artist. It is experimental in media and could tell a story or maybe not\, it is always beautiful\, unique\, and relevant to the maker and\, of course\, the reader. \nworkshop in connection to IMA’s exhibition of Cat’s work ‘Sensibilities of Place’. This workshop is about how to create an artist’s book using a variety of materials and framed within the notion of ‘sensibilities of place’ – your place. \nThe workshop begins at the hardest part and that is… getting started! The focus of this workshop is to learn how to dispel that creative tension by tapping into some of Cat’s ‘tricks of the trade’ based on accessible materials being used in magical ways: drawing\, printmaking\, collage\, and simple writing processes. The goal is to get marks onto the paper thus helping you realize your story. Yes\, you will take home an artist’s book that expresses your sense of place\, and you will also take away a bevy of tricks to fuel your creative endeavours at home. \nJoin Cat for an enjoyable morning of material exploration\, a bit of storytelling\, and lots of laughter through creativity. All materials are included and pre-registration is required as seats are limited. No experience necessary – bring a picnic lunch and an open heart to play.

SUMMARY:Jake's Gift
DESCRIPTION:Jake’s Gift returns to the Sunset Theatre stage this summer on Saturday\, July 15th and Friday\, September 8th. This multi-award winning play is written and performed by Julia Mackey and Directed by Dirk Van Stralen. It was one of three plays to come out of our inaugural Exploration Series in 2006. \nSynopsis: \nJake’s Gift is a surprisingly funny drama about a Canadian WW2 veteran’s reluctant return to Normandy for the 60th Anniversary of D-Day. \nWhile revisiting the shores of Juno beach\, Jake encounters Isabelle\, a precocious 10-year-old from the local village. Isabelle’s inquisitive nature and charm challenge the old soldier to confront some long-ignored ghosts – most notably the war-time death of his eldest brother\, Chester\, a once promising young musician. \nAt its heart\, Jake’s Gift is about the legacy of remembrance and makes personal the story behind one soldier’s grave. \nWritten & Performed by Julia Mackey \nDirected by Dirk Van Stralen \nwww.jakesgift.com \nThe show is 1 Act and runs 65 minutes with no intermission. \nTickets are $20 for Adults\, $18 for Sunset Theatre Members and $10 for Teens and Kids. The play is recommended for Ages 10 +
