Fernie Teen Artists Banner Project Session

Event Date: 
Monday, May 4, 2020
Time: 
4:00pm - 5:00pm

Are you a teen interested in entering the Banner Project but not quite sure how to go about it? This live Teen Banner Project Session is for you! Tara Higgins will walk you through the steps and help work around a theme.

They would really love to see teen artists have a presence at the Banner Project this year. The feedback I've gotten is that they many would love to submit a piece of art or photography but are pretty stymied and overwhelmed by the process. So, they've put this special Banner Project session together just for teens.

3rd week of April: IP MAN!

Event Date: 
Friday, May 1, 2020
Time: 
6:00pm - 8:00pm

To make up for the loss of basic movement during this strange times in isolation, it seemed fitting to suggest a modern kung-fu (or wing-chung in this case) film to either inspire us to move a little more or be satisfied with the acceptance that we will never be able to move at even a fraction of the speed that Dony Yen can.

A few interesting facts hide behind this awesome action with ties to Bruce Lee's trainer, The Japanese imperial occupation of Fo Shan, china in 1937 and the birth of Wing Chung taught as means of self defence. Watch it this week if you feel like it.
