SUMMARY:Heritage Playhouse: Film Showing: The Choral
DESCRIPTION:UK 2025\, 113 min\, Drama\nStarring: Taylor Uttley\, Ralph Fiennes\, Emily Fairn\nDirector: Nicholas Hytner \nAgainst the backdrop of World War I\, a Yorkshire town attempts to keep alive its annual Choral concert\, in spite of the fact that many of the town’s men are off fighting—and many are not coming back. \nThe new Choral maestro\, Dr. Henry Guthrie (masterfully played by Ralph Fiennes) must try to put together a group of singers with varying degrees of talent\, while battling the prejudices of some of the townspeople\, particularly the men on the Choral committee. With anti-German sentiment rampant\, Guthrie is castigated for\, among other things\, his previous work in Germany\, his love of German music and literature\, and his atheism. The film is rounded out by a cast of engaging characters who are all struggling with the challenges of wartime living and dying. In the end\, what elevates the film and the town’s characters are the transcendent powers of music and of human interactions.

SUMMARY:Sunshine Coast Community Forest Open House 2026
DESCRIPTION:Each year we hold an Open House\, an opportunity for the community to come learn about their community forest. This year we are doing a drop-in style open house\, so you can come talk to staff and involved community members to learn about what your community forest is working on this year for as little or as much time as you have to share with us\, and focus on your areas of interest. \nSpecific topics around which we’ll have information to share\, and people to talk to about: \n– 2026 Operating Plan: Where and how we plan to harvest timber for the next 5 years following Ecosystem Based Management principles \n– Growing the Community Forest: The Sunshine Coast Community Forest (SCCF) has purchased Forest Licence A86929 and is seeking to convert this 12\,000m3 license into a Community Forest Agreement (CFA). This represents a generational opportunity to increase the footprint of forest land managed locally for long-term sustainability\, and to renew the call for partnerships with First Nations and local governments. \n– Our Board of Directors: Meet some of the passionate people who provide leadership grounded in their values as volunteer community members. \n– Community Advisory Panel: A group of interested community members who meet monthly to discuss what they value in local forests \n– Community Engagement: What we’re doing to support forest literacy through field trips\, free land-based learning opportunities\, donations and in-kind contributions of locally grown lumber for community projects. \n– Light fare will be served.\nHead to SCCF.ca/events to RSVP and you’ll receive a calendar invite and a reminder. RSVP not required.

SUMMARY:Art Exhibition: GPAG - Yeonmi Kim | Sai
DESCRIPTION:to Nov 22nd. Sai is a Korean word that describes a state of being existing between time\, space\, and relationships. It encompasses coexistence\, interconnections\, process\, and the present as a constantly moving energy. This series documents Kim’s journey as an immigrant\, reflecting the sense of disconnection experienced as a stranger in an unfamiliar place\, cultural transition\, and inner reflection. \nCreated with limited colours and simple lines\, Kim’s illustrated diary distills her thoughts\, emotions\, and everyday experiences into a form of visual poetry. Presented for the first time in this exhibition\, the diary series is reinterpreted through different materials\, including paper\, wood\, and fabric. By translating the same images into these distinct mediums\, Kim explores how their inherent material qualities and characteristics transform the images\, opening up new visual possibilities and interpretations. While rooted in her own personal experiences\, Sai touches on feelings and struggles that many of us share. Uncertainty\, loneliness\, impermanence\, and the longing to belong are part of the human experience\, especially in a world that is constantly changing. Through these works\, viewers are invited to pause and reflect on their own sense of identity\, their capacity to find their way through difficult times\, and their search for belonging. \nAn exhibition on display in the Main Gallery Oct. 29th – Nov. 22nd. Join us for an Opening Reception on Saturday\, October. 31st\, 2pm – 4pm; and for a free workshop on Nov. 14th\, 2pm – 3pm. Find more info and register for the workshop online. All are welcome!

SUMMARY:Art Exhibition: GPAG - Charles Keillor | Pacific Graphite
DESCRIPTION:to Nov 22nd. Created using the most elemental medium\, Keillor’s black and white graphite drawings explore the relationship between human habitats and the immediate natural world; as well as the connections between modes of transportation and infrastructure\, architecture\, lifestyle\, the economy\, and the environment. These stylized depictions aim to instill elements of anticipation\, mystery\, contemplation\, and celebration for the viewer. Pacific Graphite reflects Keillor’s fascination with interpreting our local region\, from the historic and recent past to the present day. His work focuses on our local landscapes and seascapes\, with architectural\, urban\, industrial\, and recreational components. \nOriginally from Vancouver\, Charles Keillor is a full time artist now based in Nanaimo. Working in graphite\, the high contrast and monochromatic nature of Keillor’s drawings results in a palpable tension. In combination with this tension\, the stylized trees and natural features of the landscape juxtaposed with urban or architectural elements creates a strong sense of place and time\, grounding the viewer within the scene. \nJoin us for an Opening Reception on Saturday\, Oct. 31st\, 2pm – 4pm; and for a free Artist Talk on Sat. Nov. 7th\, 2pm – 3pm. All are welcome to attend\, no registration required!

SUMMARY:Art Exhibition: GPAG - Deb Willis | Khutzeymateen Shoreline Inhabitants
DESCRIPTION:to Nov 22nd. The Khutzeymateen Valley is Canada’s only grizzly bear sanctuary and the home of one of British Columbia’s most important populations of grizzly bears. Located on the northwest coast of BC\, the Khutzeymateen is a stunning land of dense Sitka spruce rainforest\, fjords\, and high\, rugged mountains. Created in 1992 after threats of logging and subsequent lobbying by environmentalists\, the Khutzeymateen Park is a pristine wilderness that is home to a minimum of sixty grizzlies\, perhaps the largest concentration of grizzlies on the entire BC coast; as well as to black bears\, wolverines\, wolves\, mountain goats\, otters\, whales\, and more. In 2024 Deb Willis travelled by float plane\, and then by boat\, to the Khutzeymateen Park\, approximately 45km northeast of Prince Rupert. She then travelled on a small inflatable boat with seven other passengers and their guide into the southeastern end of the Khutzeymateen inlet to observe grizzlies on the shore as they moved through their daily lives eating\, playing\, sleeping\, and mating at close range. \nGrizzly bears are often portrayed in the media as aggressive\, man-hunting\, fear inspiring animals; these bears\, however\, present a completely different view. There are only two commercial operators allowed into the sanctuary\, and visitation is strictly regulated in order to protect the park and its wildlife. The grizzlies in the Khutzeymateen Sanctuary have never had a negative interaction with a human\, and they ignored the visitors’ presence completely\, focusing instead on their usual daily activities. Through her artwork\, Willis portrays these majestic animals in a new light\, and raises awareness of how important it is to set aside lands where these animals can live without human conflict. \nAn exhibition on display in Joe’s Lounge Oct. 29th – Nov. 22nd. Join us for an Opening Reception on Saturday\, October. 31st\, 2pm – 4pm. All are welcome!
