eatART fosters art research with a focus on large-scale, technically sophosticated art by supporting both independent and internal art projects.  The event was full of unexpected fun and is recommended for those of all ages.

Highlights of eatART: Power the VAG:

• Excellent music by Michael Fraser Violin

Vancouver's Laughing Statues Saved!

The statues that greet visitors to Vancouver's English Bay Beach have been saved by a donation by Lululemon founder Chip Wilson.  The bronze sculptures have been a popular attraction at the corner of Denman and David Street in the city's West End. The statues are a 'must see' for tourists to Vancouver.

Firewood or Wood Fire?

This is an excellent idea that I had to share. It was posted and send around on Facebook.
