Summer may be wrapping up, but with fall comes the celebration of art, culture and community.
B.C. Culture Days is back and this year you can expect a variety of events in person and online.
In Kelowna, there will be more in-person events than last year, but there will still be some events hosted online, Culture Days coordinator Elana Bizovie said.
香蕉视频直播淭here are actually a lot of things happening online across Canada and B.C. that people can tune into through the Culture Days website, especially if people aren香蕉视频直播檛 feeling quite safe or ready to go out to in-person events,香蕉视频直播� she said.
香蕉视频直播淢ost of the activities will be at the Rotary Centre, but we香蕉视频直播檙e also working with some other organizations to create some events for outside in downtown that people can do on their own time.香蕉视频直播�
Those outdoor activities will include a downtown scavenger hunt, a Cultural District walking tour and roving audience experience, among others. Virtual activities include cultural cuisine lessons where you can cook in the safety of your own kitchen and digital radio plays you can stream at home.
This year香蕉视频直播檚 theme is RE:IMAGINE, which invites participants to reimagine and think about what a post-pandemic world would look like.
香蕉视频直播淲e want to think about how arts and culture can really support community and encourage feeling, growth and connectedness in times that have been particularly difficult,香蕉视频直播� she said.
香蕉视频直播淎rtists and creators have been affected by the pandemic as much as everyone else, not able to perform or exhibit their work. Many creators are inspired by human interaction and all of that has been limited, so I think that香蕉视频直播檚 one of the reasons why this is important.
香蕉视频直播淲hen we talk about supporting local, we need to talk about supporting local artists too. But for the larger community, it really comes back to connecting or maybe for many re-connecting to their community香蕉视频直播� participating in arts and culture brings all of us together and reminds us we香蕉视频直播檙e more the same than we are different.香蕉视频直播�
