SUMMARY:Glass Petals Live At Bloom Nightclub
DESCRIPTION:Bloom Nightclub Presents \nGlass Petals – Vancouver BC \nStream glass petals music | Listen to songs\, albums\, playlists for free on SoundCloud \nwww.glasspetals.com \nGlass Petals is Felix Cartal and Johnny Jover. Club music only. They love playing full tracks and never rushing into the next record. It’s a marathon not a sprint. The best nights are where we forget about everything and get lost in the music together. \nGlass Petals is the “Club Music Only” project of Vancouver-based Felix Cartal and johnnyjover. \nGlass Petals’ passion for house and techno shines in their releases that blend genres to create a signature sound\, setting them apart as one of the most exciting and innovative DJ duos in the scene today. \n  \nCapozzi – Albany CA \nStream Capozzi music | Listen to songs\, albums\, playlists for free on SoundCloud \nCapozzi is new to the scene but no stranger to rhythm. Debuting her first record on Tchami’s “Confession” label\, followed by successive releases on Pinnacle Collective\, Capozzi secured her spot among the house hitters. Many know Capozzi as the tiny blonde-haired DJ killing her sets at festivals and concerts worldwide – many also know her as Lil Debbie. Jordan isn’t new to the industry\, she’s been around longer than you think. Jordan’s love for both Fashion and Music has helped her hand in hand while crafting her own identity\, she started out styling and directing content for other artists and at a turning point – used all her game and skills she learned along the way and became the Artist we know and love. Jordan has since then surpassed her Lil Debbie era with her new calling as DJ Capozzi. Branding her Italian last name\, she’s busier than ever\, between traveling the world\, working with brands like Adidas\, and still pushing content as an artist – she’s truly a force to be reckoned with. Here at Galore\, we love profiling artists and creators pushing boundaries. \nWith Local Support: \nMare Bear – Nelson BC \nStream Mare Bear music | Listen to songs\, albums\, playlists for free on SoundCloud \n10PM-2AM \n19+

SUMMARY:“Uno” by Raul Pous Facha
DESCRIPTION:Meet Raul: Architect\, Artist\, and Digital Fabrication Visionary\n\n\n\n“I’m Raul\, an architect and artist of Mexican origin\, now based in Canada since 2022. My lifelong fascination with materials and manufacturing techniques has deeply influenced my approach to design. 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. Through the fusion of technology and craftsmanship\, I am able to create pieces that retain the unique essence of handmade work while elevating their quality and accuracy.”\n\n\n\nExhibition Dates: March 10 – 20\, 2025\n\n\n\nOpening Reception: Thursday\, March 13 from 4:00pm-5:30pm\n\n\n\nGallery Hours: Monday-Friday\, 12pm-4pm\n\n\nTo learn more\, visit us at: https://visacgallery.com/exhibitions/#unoraulpousfacha
