Cochrane Culture Days Were Fantastic!

We set up at the Cochrane Farmers Market on Sept 7  and enjoyed the Murphy Rowan – Stoney Nakoda drummer and singer and the Drowsy Maggies. Midnight Taiko performed and invited the audience to drum with them – very cool! Ga-On Taekwando gave us an exciting demonstration of their skills.

The kids assumed a fun character with Imagine That YYC Face Painting and Balloons and Butterflies balloon twisters provided fun balloon shapes.

Parking was convenient on the south side of the tracks, and while walking through to Main Street, everyone saw Wazin Îchinabi Ti raising their tipi at The Station Greenspace. Our respected and loved Stoney Nakoda elders, Pauline and JR Twoyoungmen, were on hand to chat with all.

Wazin Îchinabi Ti (521 Main St. W) hosted a sale of a variety of Indigenous crafts.

 

We love to celebrate our local arts and culture

We are so happy to again team up with the Cochrane Farmers Market and the Cochrane Classic Car Club to combine great performances with their ongoing events.

 

We are SO grateful for the wonderful people and businesses who help to fund Cochrane’s healthy, interactive arts community.
