It’s the far limits of a day trip from Salt Spring Island, but if you leave on the first Vesuvius ferry you can be there around 10:30. Stay until late afternoon and make it back, happily exhausted, via a late ferry. Sometimes you just have to heed the call of the West Coast…
Florence has a stunning display at Gallery 8 right now. And I have documented her work which is hanging upstairs in the main gallery. But I also liked the way the light was playing in the gallery itself…
Gotta Serve Somebody by Gulf Island Secondary School Acting 11/12. Photos were taken during yesterday’s dress rehearsal run-through. The show runs today and tomorrow at ArtSpring.
Opening for Acting 11/12 is Drama 9/10. For many of these students, it’s their first time on stage. Their second short performance is called This is a Test. Very funny! Nice to see some kids up their making their first performance and lots of grade 12s making their final performance.
Illtyd Perkins, sporting a Sea Capers 98 cap, arrives at the finish line first, narrowly beating the boat carrying his son and friends.
Sea Capers is back in 2013. And so is the Build a Boat Race.
Below, the first photo shows the prettiest boat (that ventured only a few feet from shore), Captain Jack starting the foot race to the boats, and a few mishaps and some mayhem. And of course, a Salt Spring free spirit oblivious to it all and performing on her own little island.
Congratulations to the organizers and volunteers.
Enjoy the story these photos tell:
