Take a Peek

1 Sep

 

 

We love knowing what goes on behind closed doors. Think about the thrill of being in the kitchen of a favourite restaraunt, taking a tour of an engine room, slipping backstage or even the excitement of learning how marbles are made.

It’s about revealing secrets, crossing the line, and sharing the experiences people can’t hardly imagine. (And although we’ll never get to sneak past security guard to get a kodak moment with Buddy Holly, at least we can live through this photo.)

As a part of the Olio Festival 2011 we proudly present your storytellers and performers for Behind The Scenes.

See you Saturday, September 24 at the Wise Hall – there is a limited number of tickets so put off doing your laundry instead of buying yours here.

And, as always, thanks to our pals at Pike for another great poster.

Adventure In All Of Us

29 Apr

Our lovely friends over at Megaphone, Vancouver’s Street Paper,  just released their latest issue with a focus on storytelling projects across the city. We are honoured to be featured among stories of Megaphone vendors, documentary filmmakers, homelessness activists and many other community builders. Get a sneak peek of the issue by visiting Megaphone online and remember to pick up a copy from your Megaphone vendor.

A special thanks to Kevin Hollett who wrote a great piece about Rain City Chronicles and survived a coffee date with us.
