The Only Animal hosts relaxed meet-ups to share methods for slow, process-led art making using seasonal plants and other local materials. This month we will be meeting and working with Sarita Opal Moodie, a landscape designer and artist, to explore the beautiful and unpredictable world of cyanotype printing on fabrics using sunlight, found botanicals, hand drawn patterns, and pre-treated textiles to create cyan blue-and-white prints the shapes and textures of nature.
This event is a mix of focused and informal activity. There will be moments of collective gathering and others that are more open, please choose whatever experience feels best for you. More info here.

Hackett Park Artisan Fair

The Hackett Park Artisan Fair is an annual gathering of local and regional vendors. The Fair has been an annual tradition on the Coast for 34 years, and attracts close to 5000 visitors seeking to discover the creations of artisans who are jury selected based on talent, originality, and the unique items they have to offer for sale. In keeping with our ongoing tradition, the fair will coincide with the popular Festival of the Written Arts (August 11th-14th, 2022, celebrating 40 years!)
This year’s Fair will take place in the lower field of Hackett Park and at the Arts Centre.
We will have live musicians in Hackett Park’s new amphitheatre and fun activities at the Arts Centre. There will be a large variety of artisans, artists, entertainers, and food vendors!
