The axe block is the mini work bench of the carving world. A simple but very functional piece of portable equipment that is necessary for an enjoyable carving experience. A properly sized axe block can make the difference between a sore body at the end of a session or not. We will cover mostly axe and saw work in this class. \nThis course is perfect for everyone\, especially those that are total beginners and have perhaps never used an axe or knife to carve before. You will learn the confidence to handle sharp tools safely and by the end will be ready to do with your own home carving station.

The documentary film Dirt Relations is about to change that. Screening at the Nelson Library\, Dirt Relations is a 30-minute documentary that delves into the connection between mountain biking\, reconciliation and healing intergenerational trauma. Following the screening\, there will be a panel conversation. The event is free and open to the public. \nDirt Relations tells the story of three men: Patrick Lucas\, an 8th generation Canadian from Courtney\, BC\, Thomas Schoen\, a first generation Canadian\, and Tom Eustache\, a Secwepemc man and member of the Simpcw First Nation. Their unlikely friendship led them to create the Indigenous Youth Mountain Bike Program\, and ultimately find themselves recognized as leaders in fostering meaningful reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples. \nThe friendship between the three men are an example of how to bring truth and reconciliation to all aspects of life. Schoen says: “Trail building is an amazing tool when it comes to reconciliation. We’re working side by side\, in the dirt\, we’re talking about the past\, we’re talking about the pain\, about the hurt. There’s no way to form a better bond than by working shoulder-to-shoulder to create something for the people.” \nThe Indigenous Youth Mountain Bike Program is a non-profit that assists First Nations in western Canada to develop world class multi-purpose nature trails that promote outdoor recreation and healthy living. Over the past decade the Indigenous Youth Mountain Bike Program has worked with dozens of Nations\, trained hundreds of youth to build trails\, and engage in the sport of mountain biking\, and built more than 100 kilometres of trails.

Welcome to the jubilant celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Tryzub Ukrainian Dance Society. Since its inception in 1974\, Tryzub has stood as a beacon of artistic excellence\, a symphony of spirited footwork and colorful costumes that tell the story of Ukraine’s rich heritage. \n“DZVINKA\,” Tryzub’s 50th Anniversary Show\, is a unique 2-hour stage production that unveils over one hour of original music\, composed and recorded amidst the shadows of war in Ukraine. Featuring new elaborate costumes crafted in Ukraine\, the mesmerizing choreography takes audiences on a riveting journey encompassing excitement\, anticipation\, laughter\, and moments of despair. \nThe first half of the show introduces an original storyline centered around Ukrainian folk hero Oleksa Dovbush—an outlaw\, a hero to the people\, and leader of the Opryshky. The second half navigates through the diverse regions of Ukraine\, showcasing the delicate balance between intricate technique\, colorful costumes\, the grace and beauty of our female dancers\, and the strength\, determination\, and gravity-defying tricks of our male dancers. \nDespite formidable challenges\, the costumes and music were created in Ukraine by brave individuals.  As a result of the shutdown of Ukrainian airspace due to Russia’s war\, the costumes were transported by van out of the country and then flown to Canada from neighbouring nations.  These costumes embody resilience amid adversity. As Russian military targets museums\, theaters\, and historical sites\, orchestra musicians\, scattered and forced to record in school classrooms\, join hands with Tryzub in crafting original works like “DZVINKA.” \nNet Proceeds from the performance will be donated to support Ukrainian Newcomer programs that support the mental health and wellness of youth impacted by war.

Jay performs with a powerful voice and heavy hitting guitar\, finger-style or flat-picked\, your choice! \nLeela Gilday was born and raised in the Northwest Territories\, and she writes about the people and the land that created her. The power in her voice conveys the depth of her feelings of love and life in a rugged environment and vibrant culture\, as if it comes straight from that earth. Leela’s family is from Délįne on the shore of Great Bear Lake and her rich vocals dance across the rhythmic beats of traditional Dene drumming and bass line. \nLeela Gilday – Awards & Accolades\n2021 JUNO Award ** Indigenous Artist of the Year\n2021 Summer Solstice Indigenous Music Award ** Social Voice\n2021 Canadian Folk Music Award Winner ** Indigenous Songwriter of the Year (North Star Calling) \n2 x 45 minute sets \nPhotos by Olya Shendrik. \nSingle tickets are $30.
