Downtown #VictoriaBC will be filled with music, colour and tradition on April 11 as the Victoria #BengaliCulturalSociety hosts its first outdoor celebration of #PohelaBoishakh - the #Bengali #NewYear. The #FreeEvent, set for #CentennialSquare at noon, marks a milestone for the local Bengali community, bringing one of its most recognized #cultural traditions into the public square. For the first time in Victoria, organizers will stage the #MongolShobhajatra -a โ€œparade of well-beingโ€ recognized by #UNESCO. The procession will feature large, handcrafted masks and vibrant artistic structures, accompanied by drumming and music symbolizing #peace and #unity.

The parade is expected to begin around 1 p.m. The celebration will also include live Bengali music and dance performances, a food fair showcasing #SouthAsian cuisine, and vendor stalls offering traditional clothing and handmade goods. Organizers say the event is meant to highlight the #diversity of #cultures on #VancouverIsland while offering residents a chance to engage with Bengali traditions.

I'm getting some resources this week, to put together several free #GarryOakEcosystem #nature #zines to give away in my #LittleFreeLibrary all through this Spring & Summer.
It's part of my ongoing personal efforts to boost #NatureEducation / #NatureTeachings - right from the front of our home; so more people can learn about amazing local #biodiversity in our local #ecosystems ๐Ÿ™‚
People who learn more about nature, will learn to love, respect & protect nature life systems ๐Ÿ’šโ˜˜๏ธ

Attention #Vancouver #YVR ๐ŸŒฑ

Faces of the Fraser: The Confluence is coming up.
April 24 @ 6:00 pm โ€“ 9:00 pm.

What is it?
A mixer for #environmental professionals focused on honest solutions, new relationships, and bold ideas.

Working in the #EnvironmentalSector can be isolating. Weโ€™re hoping to change that by hosting The Confluence, an evening of thought-provoking discussions, #communitybuilding , and #networking at the Fraser River Discovery Centre.

It kicks off with a keynote talk by Jason Hwang, Vice President of the Pacific Salmon Foundation, then transition to small-group activities to discuss how our field can adapt to a changing political environment. What should we be looking out for in the coming years? What are some things we need to let go of?

Expect to have some assumptions challenged and to come away with a fresh perspective on your work.

Refreshments will be provided by Columbia Street Sandwich Company and Heartberry Soda.

COST: Pre-registration is required.
Regular (starting March 28th) - $15
Student (Student ID Required), Senior (65 and older), or Member - $12
