Designers and artists of all ages and skill levels will compete for cash and prizes in a variety of design categories. A great place to bring the mother in your life for a night of fun and amazement!

This juried, wearable art event will also include an array of fresh trash art by professional and novice creators, and trash-themed performances by beloved local performers, including RhythmTrash Orchestra.

Jane Coop and Henry Shapard - Nelson Overture Concerts Society Adults: $29 + fee
18 and Under: Free

Join us for a memorable evening of chamber music with two of Canada's most exceptional and highly acclaimed musicians: pianist Jane Coop and VSO principal cellist, Henry Shapard.

“It is difficult to pinpoint what makes this pianist so expressive, for in her playing everything works together: technique, sense of style, tempo, sensitivity of touch, phrasing and dynamic shading. Coop has that extra something that lets a pianist become a poet.”
- THE GAZETTE, Montreal

“There’s a musical instinctiveness in [Shapard’s] playing, which is breathtaking because every time he plays, it sounds like he’s playing it for the first time — there’s that wonderful spontaneity.”
- William Boughton, conductor of the Yale Symphony Orchestra Dates: Mon 12 Booking and More Information

HOTEL CALIFORNIA - The Original Tribute to The Eagles (Canada)
For over three decades now HOTEL CALIFORNIA have been recreating the legendary sound of THE EAGLES, and thrilling audiences all over the world. The band set the bar in 1986, and they’ve remained the industry leading substitute for The Eagles ever since. Playing to huge outdoor and arena audiences, sharing bills with some of rock’s legends, and going places no tribute band has gone before. A long run by any measure, but it begs the question - what makes HOTEL CALIFORNIA so special? Well, incredible lead vocal similarity, intensely accurate instrumental work, soaring harmonies, and top flight live performances, just for starters. These are the band’s hallmarks, and the foundation on which their reputation has been built. With over a century of collective professional experience in the band today, they’re still going stronger than ever!

HOTEL CALIFORNIA’s show has evolved into a masterful celebration of The Eagles’ music. One of the most game-changing song catalogs in the history of rock n’ roll is performed to perfection before your eyes and ears. The band also offers tons of value-added promotional support and materials to every client, and the confidence that industry insiders have in them has made HOTEL CALIFORNIA one of the world’s most accomplished tribute productions. You can check them out any time you like, but you’ll never want to leave.

If you love The Eagles, then welcome to the Hotel California - you’ve just found the next-best thing. Dates: Wed 14 Booking and More Information
