While I’ve always appreciated the artistry and individuality of handmade products\, I’ve also recognized the challenges they face in achieving precision and consistent quality.\n\n\n\nThis curiosity led me to digital fabrication\, where I discovered the power to translate complex designs into reality with precision and control.

SUMMARY:Author Event: Tom Langford at the Fernie Museum
DESCRIPTION:Join writer and academic Tom Langford to present this new and welcome addition to Fernie’s history! \nDoors at 7pm. Free Admission. \nNibbles and cash bar included\, and early-release copies will be available for purchase. \nThe Canadian postwar economic boom did not include the Crowsnest Pass and Elk Valley. The Lights on the Tipple Are Going Out tells the story of our fight for survival. \nUnderground mine closures began in 1950\, prompting various attempts by coal companies\, labour unions\, leftist political parties\, municipal governments\, and business groups to save the local economy. Efforts to reindustrialize in the mid-1960s brought unregulated\, pell-mell growth\, unsafe working conditions\, and extreme pollution. Starting in 1968\, however\, the tide turned again as new mountaintop strip mines were built to produce metallurgical coal for Asia-Pacific steelmakers. \nToday\, in the face of the climate crisis\, green steel manufacturing is being developed that eliminates the use of CO2-emitting coal. In the coming decades\, as this book argues\, the Crowsnest Pass and Elk Valley will need to stress ecosystem restoration\, sustainable economic activities\, and the inclusion of First Nations at the centre of economic decision making in order to embrace a future beyond coal.

SUMMARY:Speaker Series with Cindy Devine: Cultivating a Champion
DESCRIPTION:Get ready for an evening of epic stories\, serious inspiration\, and a whole lot of trail talk! We’re stoked to welcome Cindy Devine—world champion downhill mountain biker and absolute legend—for a ride through her incredible career\, starting at 6 pm on Thursday\, May 22 at the Rossland Museum. \nCindy will share how her active childhood laid the foundation for becoming the very first UCI World Downhill Mountain Bike Champ in 1990. She’ll chat about the wild early days of competitive mountain biking\, what it was like blazing trails as a female racer in a male-dominated sport\, and how the scene has evolved over the decades. \nAs an inductee in the World Mountain Bike Hall of Fame\, Canadian Cycling Hall of Fame\, and most recently\, the BC Sports Hall of Fame\, Cindy’s legacy is the stuff of two-wheeled dreams. Lucky us—she calls Rossland home! \nWhether you’re a mountain biking fanatic or just love a good story\, this is one talk you won’t want to miss. Admission by donation. Bring your friends—let’s ride!

SUMMARY:Nelson Sketch Comedy Revue: Volume II
DESCRIPTION:After selling out the Capitol Theatre in November 2024 with the premiere of Nelson Sketch Comedy Revue\, we’re back—bigger\, bolder\, and weirder than ever. \nThis show is a love letter to the phrase “Keep Nelson Weird.” It’s a live show packed with fast-paced\, scripted comedy. Each scene is short\, sharp\, and completely original—written and performed by the cast. Expect the return of Nelson News Tonight—and if you don’t know what that is… well\, we won’t spoil it for you.  \nWhat audiences said about our last show: \n“That was such an amazing show! Maybe the best I’ve seen in Nelson\, honestly. Please do it again!”\n “I haven’t laughed that much in a long time.”\n “We loved it so so much and can’t wait to see the next show!”\n“PEOPLE IN THE BATHROOM CAN”T STOP TALKING ABOUT HOW GOOD THE SHOW IS!!!! AHHH!!!!!” \nThe Cast: \nJaymes Bowman \nMichelle Hart \nEmma Hill \nRuby Horton \nKait Hundt-Lippett \nRuth Krulitsky \nJonathan Ramos \n  \nWith special guest\, Jackie Atkins!  \n  \nDirected by Michelle Hart  \nThis 90-minute production\, including an intermission\, features mature content—parental discretion is advised. \nDue to the incredible response to our last show\, we’re thrilled to add a second performance! Don’t miss your chance to catch us at the Capitol Theatre on May 15 or May 27

SUMMARY:Changing Seasons Across the Kootenays
DESCRIPTION:“Changing Seasons Across the Kootenays” A Solo Exhibit by Kimberley Artist Lynne Zentner Now Showing at Art Gallery Kimberley \nWe are proud to present “Changing Seasons Across the Kootenays\,” a serene and heartfelt solo exhibition by local artist Lynne Zentner\, available from May 15 through June 8\, 2025. \nLynne’s collection pays tribute to the beauty and diversity of the four seasons in the Kootenays. Rooted in her deep connection to nature\, each landscape painting is a visual love letter to the forests and mountain views she’s encountered during her many hours of “forest bathing\,” solo camping\, hiking\, and skiing across the region. Her acrylic paintings capture not only the changing colours of the seasons\, but also the mood and atmosphere of being lost in nature. \n“I hope some of the love and beauty I’ve poured into my work will leak through to the viewer\,” says Lynne\, “and maybe even inspire a smile!” \nBorn on the wide-open prairies\, Lynne’s artistic adventure began against a vast natural backdrop and blossomed into a professional career quite literally painting backgrounds bringing animated worlds to life as an artist and colour designer. With over 15 years in the Ottawa animation industry—including work with Funbag\, Lacewood\, and Hinton Animation for productions like Flash Gordon\, Anthony Ant\, and Watership Down—she has mastered a wide range of media and styles. Since changing careers and becoming an English language teacher\, she has embraced landscape painting as her way of sharing her vision of the world. \nWhy should you visit? Because this exhibit is more than beautiful art—it’s a celebration of the wild\, magical place we call home represented in paintings that invite visitors to experience the seasons of the Kootenays through the eyes—and heart—of a passionate local artist. \nEveryone is invited to the opening reception on Thursday\, May 15\, 2025 at 7 pm. Whether you’re a longtime admirer of Lynne’s work or a newcomer\, this is a show that will move you—and perhaps change the way you see the landscape around you. \nWhere: Art Gallery Kimberley\, 167 Deer Park Ave\, Kimberley\, BC.\nWhen: May 15 through June 8\, 2025 | Monday through Wednesday\, by appointment and Thursday through Sunday\, 10 am – 5 pm.

SUMMARY:When the Sun Goes Down - A Gallery Show by Shea Caughlin
DESCRIPTION:Artist’s Statement\nWhen the sun dips below the mountains\, the forest becomes a world of wonder and magic. As the light fades\, the air becomes crisp and the sky transforms from golden hues to soft ethereal glows from the moonlight. The creatures of the forest begin to stir; Owls\, with their piercing gazes\, are echoing through the trees. Foxes\, emerge from their dens in search for a snack. Moose and elk\, with their majestic antlers and gentle eyes\, step into the clearing and roam out from the shadows of the forest. \nThe Exhibition will be highlighting the beauty of the Elk Valley area from dusk to dawn inspired by her experiences around Elk Valley\, BC. Her paintings will be highlighting the serene quiet and mystical forests to the wildlife roaming the area such as elk\, moose\, foxes and rams in oils on canvas. \nArtist Bio \nShea Caughlin\, born in 1992\, is a self-taught wildlife artist who draws deeply from her personal experiences in nature. Born in Nova Scotia\, grew up in Ontario and Alberta\, now resides in beautiful British Columbia. \nSince moving to Elk Valley over a year ago\, Shea has been so incredibly inspired by her surroundings that she picked up her paint brush after 15 years and hasn’t put it down since. Working from her home studio\, she draws inspiration by day; walking the trails of ancient forests\, discovering hidden lakes\, and observing wildlife around her home\, to capture every detail by night at her easel. These peaceful surroundings around Elk Valley has helped solidify her love for nature and wildlife and is shaping her future as an artist. Shea’s current medium is oil on canvas. \nInsta: @artistsheacaughlin
