VPL Puppetry and Story Time, EartHand, and Crafty Canada

The Art Carnivale was packed with Arts and Crafts for families to enjoy. The Crafty Canada booth, Masquerade Mask making, EartHand fabric rope making, Uncle Hoonki instrument workshop, and VPL Puppetry Story Time were all busy getting crafty! 

Thank you to Vancouver Public Library for having three 15 minute Puppetry Storytime shows.


 Thank you to the Artists that helped create the Crafty Canada booth and the Board Members who helped to run the craft tables. There was some great trivia for Canada 150+ and engaging craft making. The bunting flags looked nice and colourful on the field too!
 hmm where does Quebec go? Some skill testing questions.


 Masquerade mask table was in full effect with all the creative kids. They used almost all the masks we cut out!! Great job everyone, thank you for coming to the Art Carnivale at Killarney! 
Masks were brightly decorated with jewels and feathers to make Masquerade Masks. On a side note- did you know we used file folders destined for recycling to create the masks?  Thank you to all the Volunteers who helped the children to make them. 



 Thank you to EartHand for their involvement to make the bunting flags and the fabric rope making at the event with reused and up-cycled fabrics. What an awesome idea to do a large macrame as well!

Joe Chatsis Cree Hooping Dancer and The Culture Saves Lives Pow Wow Drummers

 Joe Chatsis performing a hooping dance. Here is 13 hoops in a formation of a bird. Johnny Sam and the Culture Saves Lives Pow Wow Drummers getting warmed up with their first song. After going through the hoops and weaving in and out Joe created these globes with the hoops. What a talent to share with us. Thank you Joe! With Killarney pool in the background Joe is using the hoops and his body to create formations. We were applauding Joe's Hooping Dance and then the Pow Wow Drummers said one more song...  Joe led us in one last dance called "the friendship circle" where we all held hand and stepped with our right foot and did a small jump and shuffled our left foot. We got pretty good momentum and staff and board members joined in too. It was a lovely way to end the outdoor event. We were all tired from the heat but had a fun time together.  Thank you for coming to the Art Carnivale and making it a special day at Killarn

Fresh Roots Handmade Pizza and Fresh Pressed Cider

Fresh Roots brought their fresh ingredients and their pizza oven, and we were the lucky ones given the opportunity to create our own pizzas. Yum!!  And that's not all...they also brought in their hand press to crush up fresh fruits and make our own Fresh Pressed Cider from apples and strawberries, and other delicious fruits. This was a great learning experience and refreshing for this hot day! We want to thank Fresh Roots for their participation in the Art Carnivale at Killarney, and success with these delicious options at our event.
