Still Moon Arts Society

In order to ‘inspire connected communities and nurture a passion for nature’ Still Moon Arts Society Interns have created a walking tour brochure for the Renfrew Ravine. We encourage you to walk along the ravine and experience all the community art installations that have been built with the collaboration of literally hundreds of neighbors and students.

The brochures are free for all to use and can be downloaded at the links below.

Last sunday March 21st our Spirit Fish celebration of World Water Day started with pouring rain as we made our way to the site, but it stopped as we set up and by 2pm the sun came out and had our spirit fish tea party in the hot sun! It was beautiful! Now to get more people to be able to find this magic location!

Check out the photos of the Spirit Fish workshops at the Shadbolt Centre, with the Windermere Bike Club and the Athena 8 Field trip

Amazing but true…. fish out of water have been glimpsed in East Van! They were rather shy when questioned and burbled something about a Spirit Fish event on Sunday March 21st when they are hoping prayers for the water will make their home safe to live in again.
