Sea Cav!

So this past weekend was the Sea Cavalcade (for anyone living under a rock)! A weekend of celebration in this small little town of Gibsons that combines May Day, Dominion Day and Labour Day in one holiday (taking place from July 23rd to 25th). This year the art farm took part in the Saturday morning parade with a walking float that consisted of a noble woman (Lani Claxton), a flying sprite (Sandy Buck) and an angel (Claire Fearnley). Armed to the teeth with improv skills and smiles, we braved the sun and made the one and a half hour trek through the main town. We also handed out little scrolls and flyers to advertise for our upcoming festival, Synchronicity (August 7th and 8th). The response was great! People and kids alike loved the battling sprite and lady, and adults were more than happy to hear about a festival they could take their kids to! At the end of the day the blisters and sunburns were worth it. Slowly but surely the art farm is becoming a larger and bigger driving force in our small community.
