This is not quite a day in the life of our outreach retreat yesterday- however, we did manage to get together 6 Made in BC outreach coordinators, plus me and new Program Director Sarah Moore to talk shop and make outreach plans for this fall. All in beautiful Smithers! Thanks again MiBC presenter and outreach coordinator Miriam Colvin of the Bulkley Valley Concert Association for hosting us so graciously!
Preparation for everyone's arrival was very serious business.
On our way to the farmer's market, we passed the art gallery where Miriam has planned Smithers' third annual Art & Movement exhibition for this fall.
Us at the Old Church, our beautiful meeting spot, where we: watched video of The 605 Collective's Audible, and drafted post-show talk questions for them; worked together on planning outreach activities for the fall, and, ate yummy food.
The Old Church, and Smithers, circa 1913 (can that be right?)
Always the flip chart.
After lunch we went on an Outreach Tour of Smithers, where we saw some spots where Miriam has done outdoor events like flash mobs and mobile clubbing, and we talked about identifying potential community partners. We stopped here for a choreographic moment. Video of our dance will be liberated from i movie soon.
Relaxing at Plan B's local brewery at the end of the day....
... followed by really yummy Mexican dinner.
