Grounded in Conscious Endurance Humanism and indigenous Meshikan heritage, this interactive initiative reframes waste reduction as cultural reclamation—proving that resources, stories, and discarded items are never truly lost, only waiting to be reimagined and rearranged."Join us on July 26th at 10 am to learn how to reclaim value and reimagine the world around you from @ba.rz86 representing @mbpstudios.canada Strange Station is generously supported by @crd_bc via a #rethinkwastegrant and is part of The Strange Hour, a monthly 19+ brunch variety show, which is itself a collaboration with @spectheatre @theatreskam and @keithsonic !

Brunch + show + strange - The Strange Hour, Victoria's only 19 plus brunch variety show has got you covered. We have an amazing lineup for next Sunday, July 26th🍙🍙🍙GOOD FILLING SANKAKU We’re two Japanese food enthusiasts with over 15 years of experience in the Japanese food industry, now bringing authentic Japanese soul food to Victoria. Our journey began simply — creating food that’s safe and delicious for those avoiding gluten. Since rice is naturally gluten-free, we found Onigiri to be the perfect way to share the true taste of Japan with everyone. Our mission is to offer authentic, gluten-free Japanese comfort food that everyone can enjoy.What is Onigiri? Onigiri is one of Japan’s most beloved soul foods. Its nostalgic taste reminds many Japanese people of their mother’s home cooking. They are first moulded into triangular shapes, then filled with various ingredients.🍙🍙🍙The Strange Hour will also feature the following amazing artists and presenters... Tich the Poet - poet, actor, teacher, counsellor, dog-mom, and queer AF - @tich.thepoetBethany Couture - plant enthusiast and botanistGrayson Walker - fringe musician/ theatrical hobbyist/ ne'er-do-wellAlong with amazing performances, we got brunch for you, with onigiri rice balls from Good Filling Sankaku @goodfilling_sankaku , savory and sweet baked goods as well as drinks from Driftwood Brewery @driftwoodbrewery . consume all of these yummy treats, along with a bevy, pre-show in The Strange Shack, while playing one of our many rotating board games.

8 years of minimal waste and it’s only getting better! We diverted 99.5% of our festival waste this year (!!) A massive massive thank you to Sadie and The Sustainable Fox volunteers for all their hard work making this festival our most minimal yet! And another huge thank you to everyone who contributed to our litterpick goal, learned something at The Sustainable Fox tent, diverted their waste by using our recycling & compost bins, or otherwise helped make this SKAMpede our best diversion rate yet. We couldn’t have done it without you. See you on the trails next year. #yyjarts #yyjtheatre #sustainableyyj by @theatreskam
