SUMMARY:Tapworks: Crokinole Nights
DESCRIPTION:2nd and last Wed of the month. Hosted upstairs on the patio by Crokinole Greg. No partner or experience needed. All boards provided. Crokinole is a Canadian classic: a smooth wooden board\, a handful of wooden discs\, and one simple goal — flick your way to the centre\, knocking everyone else out. Think shuffleboard and curling shrunk to table size. Easy to learn\, not easy to stop.

SUMMARY:Gibsons Public Art Gallery: Free Community Stitch Session with Carlyn Yandle
DESCRIPTION:Join exhibiting artist Carlyn Yandle for a free Community Stitch Session. Drawing on the scrap-quilt tradition of making something out of nothing\, each participant is invited to hand stitch an improvisational 12 in. quilt block; a literal building block that can then be used as a personal artwork\, use/gift object\, or as a contribution to the ongoing ‘Hearth’ social engagement art project. All materials required are supplied\, although participants are welcome to bring their own old clothes or fabrics to incorporate into their block if they wish. Learn a new life skill\, create with other makers in our community\, learn more from Carlyn Yandle about her artwork and her creative process\, and find new ways to recycle old clothing and fabrics. \nThis event is free to attend and registration is not required. Find more information about Carlyn Yandle\, her exhibition Joyful Making in Perilous Times\, and her ongoing social-engagement art project ‘Hearth” online at www.gpag.ca.

SUMMARY:Art Exhibition: SC Arts Centre: Carolina Franzen & Helena Wadsley
DESCRIPTION:Helena Wadsley and Carolina Franzen\, both Sunshine Coast residents\, have adopted a diverse tradition of Walking Art into their practices. Engaged with the challenges posed by land use\, and in order to find alternative relations to the land\, their inspiration for drawings\, sculptures\, and video comes through periods of intense physical contact to the environment; be it that objects found in the landscape may be contextually sculpted so that their meaning and history remains connected with the land\, be it that a slow pace allows them to witness and to create through acts of acknowledgment and connectivity. Both artists’ drawings tread the lines of the land between natural and human-made\, and yet\, their sculptures\, found objects\, and video works have a second threshold in common: to record the walking experience while enabling the visitor to traverse with them.

SUMMARY:The Kube: April Feature Artist - Mia Dungeon 'Barbed Wire Moon'
DESCRIPTION:Mia Dungeon lived on the road and made art out of her van for several years. Navigating the ever-changing landscape\, her work is a sponge to the constant influx of vast visual stimuli innate to life on the road. The windshield of her 6’ x 12’ live/workspace on wheels served as a viewing portal that framed her transient experiences and challenges of life on the road that she translated into artwork. \nDungeon’s work grows out of the notions of housing instability\, broken bones\, grief\, world conflict and the healing that can knit it all back together. Her belief that everyone deserves housing security\, safety and stability is integral to Mia’s practice. The creation of make-shift dwellings and temporary living environments utilizing scrap material is explored through her work by repurposing used skateboards\, motorcycle tanks\, old cigar boxes and found objects as her canvases. \nMia’s solo time spent in the Mojave Desert between Joshua Tree and the West coastline of Southern California had a great impact on her work. Her paintings are infused with desert flora and fauna\, dusty motorcycle/skateboard trips\, and nights spent under the desert stars contemplating the complexities of the human experience. \nAs we transition from the year of the Wood Snake (2025) to the year of the Fire Horse (2026)\, this series titled “Barbed Wire Moon” also explores notions of shedding stagnant ideals and bursting forth with bold momentum toward social justice\, truth and freedom. \nDungeon explores how we might remain collectively resilient\, empathetic\, and move forward with a unified confidence through times of fear\, chaos and division.
