There’s lots to do to celebrate Canada Day locally today.
Did you know Cambridge Green Candidate Michele Braniff is CreateWaterloo’s Artist in Residence? You can spot some of her work inside Grand River Transit buses.
To celebrate Canada Day, join Michele this afternoon between 1 – 3 for Drop in urban sketching at the old Waterloo Train Station 10 Father David Bauer Dr, Waterloo, ON N2L 6M3 [directions here]
Michele promises a fun experience using pens on blank paper to produce your own highly personal & creative record of summer street scenes in Uptown Waterloo. There will be tips & coaching on selecting drawing sites, framing the sketch and using lines and shapes to suggest people, buildings and perspective. Bring your own tools and chair.
Then at 4:00pm Michele will be hosting a Story Telling Concert
In the tradition of campfires and listening together, Michele invites you to a storytelling event at the train station where she will use voice, expression and imagination to re-create the ancient tradition of storytelling. In celebration of Canada Day, Michele has created and collected stories to celebrate Waterloo County and Canada.
