View Article  HISTORIC JOY KOGAWA HOUSE GIVEN ANOTHER MONTH TO BE SAVED
VANCOUVER – TLC The Land Conservancy of British Columbia announced today that it has negotiated a 30 day extension on its option to purchase the culturally-significant Joy Kogawa House in Marpole. “The fundraising has been very successful for the short timeframe we’ve had, but time was running out,” says Bill Turner, Executive Director of TLC. “Thanks to this reprieve I’m confident we will now be able to reach our goal. The current owner has given us until April 30th as a sign of good faith and we are grateful for this gift. All we need now is for people to show their support by donating. I know we can do this if we pull together as individuals, businesses and governments.”   more »

St. Paddy's Day Eve - Celtic Fest Opens       

It's St. Paddy's Day Eve, and I am going out for a pint of Guiness with me mates....   We may even don the kilts.  Because it is Celtic Fest.  Time to celebrate all things celtic, when everybody celebrates their inner Celtic heritage.

St. Paddy’s Eve Party with the Halifax Wharf Rats
This band is a lot of fun.  They throw in celtic versions of popular songs such as "I Was Made For Loving You," by Kiss.

Beats Without Borders and CelticFest present
From Delhi to Dublin

Global grooves on a Celtic spin. The Beats Without Borders DJ collective makes music to move your head, heart and hips – mixing turntables, live dancers and instrumental adventurers like violinists Kytami and Oliver Schroer – bringing the city and beyond to life. In classic BWB style, expect live surprises and delights through the night.
