A Little Bit of Culture...

One of my favourite things to do when I have a little 'me' time, is to attend the Okanagan Institute talks on Thursday afternoons. Every week they have a variety of speakers on different topics. Last week I thoroughly enjoyed a presentation by four women on the topic of gardening - they discussed xeriscape methods, community gardens, native plants and therapeutic gardening. This week three local writers will be discussing the importance of writing communities.

Here is a little clip from their press release:

"Speaking of Which is the 84th event held since the Okanagan Institute Express Series launched in July 2007. This series of presentations feature dynamic individuals passionate about their work – from creative artistic pursuits to those with social impact.
The Okanagan Institute is a collection of local professionals interested in contributing to the quality of creative engagement in the Okanagan through publications, activities and special events."
