The Renfrew Ravine Moon Festival

Renfrew–Collingwood doesn’t exactly stand out. Kitsilano has beaches and cyclists. Downtown is a forest of glass. Mount Pleasant feels where all of the city’s constituent parts bleed into each other. But Renfrew–Collingwood? Until recently, I wouldn’t have been able to think of much of anything. It’s doesn’t have any major thoroughfares like Granville or Hastings. It’s a bit too far east for Trout Lake and not west enough to be near Metrotown. Even the City of Vancouver’s own website can’t muster a more inspiring description than calling it a “primarily residential area”.

Radio Documentary - Call for Proposals

CJSF 90.1FM is Calling for Proposals to fund four radio documentaries in the first of four funding rounds; Deadline for applications is August 26th. 2015

Radio should be for everyone. CJSF and community radio want to create opportunities for passionate community radio volunteers and make radio accessible for those who have been historically marginalized in mainstream media. CJSF and community media are driven by volunteers, but volunteering isn’t something everyone can make time to do.

Comedy Shocker: 6ick 6ick 6ick

If you’re the type that is the faint of heart and don’t like offensive jokes, you would have either left Comed Shocker’s 6ick 6ick 6ick show ten minutes in. Or, you would have stayed and left the theatre crying. Needless to say, the show was awesome.
