Tofino in April

by Adam Buskard, Tofino

A

A call to the Tofino artisans to join a studio tour. Tofino's dynamic and wild landscape draws artists from far and wide and fills them with daily inspiration. Visitors to our town often seek out these artisans in hopes of finding that perfect something to take home to visually express and remind them of their magical stay here. Tofino Studio Tour will give visitors a chance to meet local artists, experience art studios in action, and purchase works directly from the maker. The tour is currently being organised by local artists for all artists with their own studios to participate. Artists must be willing to open their studios to the public the first Sunday of every month from June until September 2008. All mediums welcome. Registration deadline is April 30th! For more information and to register call Lisa Jewell 725-3677 or Daniela Petosa 725-2297.

Earth Day Weekend in Tofino
On Tuesday April 22

The world will be celebrating Earth Day. Tofino's festivities will be kicking off Saturday April 19th with morning yoga and then expand into a weekend full of great events and festivities including interpretive walks, talks and movies, community clean ups and the yummy 4th annual Earth Day Pancake Breakfast. The breakfast takes place at the Cedar Corner building. Scarf down stacks of hemp pancakes, organic maple syrup and gulp mugs of organic fair trade coffee to celebrate Earth Day! All meals are served on cane paper plates and bio-degradable corn plastic cutlery, but if you want to do even better-bring your own plate.
