Calling all young curious curators and tale spinners to Summer Camps at the MAG

 

It’s not too late to register for week-long 2017 summer camps for kids at the Red Deer Museum Art Gallery (MAG)! The MAG has unique themes to offer this summer, for ages 6-8 and 9-11, full of art, games, adventures and learning opportunities only the MAG can offer. These five-day summer camps will take young curators and artists through a variety of themes and activities. Register by phone – 403-309-8405; online www.reddeermuseum.com/programs/summercamps/; or drop in to the MAG at 4525 – 47A Ave.

 

The camps run various weeks from July 3 to August 19, from 9:00am to 4:00pm. Each camp is designed for an optimal escapade! The campers will even be designing their own exhibitions. Every day includes outdoor activities so make sure to pack a swim suit just in case! All camps are full week registrations only. Campers can be dropped off anytime after 8:30am and picked up between 4:00 and 4:30pm. We are offering the add-on options of early drop-off beginning at 7:45am and late pick-up until 5:15pm; ideal for working parents.

All ages can enjoy diverse talents and performers from across the globe, right here at the Centrefest Street Performer Festival in downtown Red Deer. Artists, performers, and street acts combine to create a unique atmosphere that will inspire and amaze you with their outrageous and ingenious performances. Have a laugh, enjoy the food, listen to some great music taking place on stage at the 100.7 Cruz FM, kids can learn some circus skills in Circus World. Entertainment, food, face painting, crafts and much more, we’ve got it all! Join us July 29th & 30st downtown Red Deer. Visit the Centre Fest website for more information!

The 13th annual Calgary International Blues Festival returns July 31st to August 6th for the best party of the summer!

A full week of Blues workshops, concerts and special events culminate in 4 days & nights (August 3-6) of non-stop music on MainStage at Shaw Millennium Park, followed by the nightly Twilight Blues Dance Parties.

Bring the family and c'mon down to the park for some of the finest music to be had on the planet! Check out the colourful arts market, pick up some festival souvenirs and get your CDs autographed, enjoy the delicious cuisine offered by our YYC Trucks, and sip on a cool beverage in the shade of a beer tent! Summertime and Blues... it doesn't get better!

Whether you’re a true blue country music fan, or just like to have fun in a casual, relaxed atmosphere, Big Valley Jamboree is the event for you.

Okay, where to start? Well, first thing, you’d better set aside the August Long Weekend. Grab some comfortable clothes. Call your favourite people. Then join concert-goers from around the globe who make the yearly pilgrimage to a 400-acre mini village that’s created each year in Camrose, Alberta. It’s an amazing sight, and what makes it extra-special is the neighbourly feel that abounds.

There’s a reason BVJ was voted the Canadian Country Music Association’s Country Music Event of The Year in 2001, 2004, 2006, 2009, and 2010. It’s because of the non-stop action that’s available for you to enjoy. But the great thing is you set the pace. You can throw a party, or throw a pillow under your head and have a siesta. Not for too long though, because the best country music acts in the world are on the main stage from morning till night. Don't forget, there's also a trade show with all kinds of fabulous stuff, and where else can you start the day off watching the wild thrills of bull riding!

 

The Blueberry Bluegrass and Country Music Festival has been showcasing great country and bluegrass performers since it began more than three decades ago!

The event will feature musicians from across America and Canada including renowned bluegrass artists Blue Highway, Foggy Hogtown Boys, and more.

Family activities include scavenger hunts, petting zoo, penny arcade, and movies. There's also a pie making contest that's open to everyone and will award the top five contestants in three categories (fruit, cream, and meringue).

The food area will feature a variety of the community's top food trucks, and a market will feature items from around 20 local vendors.

Presented by Live Nation Canada and Two Towers, One Love Music Festival has announced its highly anticipated 2017 lineup, including performances by Ms. Lauryn Hill, Migos, Anderson .Paak and the Free Nationals and more. The all-ages event takes place on Friday, August 4 at Max Bell Centre Festival Grounds. The full lineup and festival details are listed below.

Since its beginnings in 2015, One Love Music Festival has quickly become Alberta’s biggest day in hip hop, welcoming more than 23,000 fans and performers including J Cole, Nas, Big Sean, Logic, and more.

Taking place in September in 2015 and 2016, One Love’s move to early August allows closer alignment with dance music festival, Chasing Summer, scheduled for August 5 and 6 also at Max Bell Centre Festival Grounds. Fans can extend their outdoor festival experience with the new One Love-Chasing Summer Combo Ticket and enjoy three days of live dance and hip hop music. More details at www.OneLoveFestival.ca

The Canmore Folk Music Festival is the longest running folk music festival in Alberta and one of its finest. Adhering to a philosophy and legacy of folk, world, blues and roots music, the festival since 1978 has attracted up to 21,000 music fans annually from across southern Alberta, western Canada, the northwestern USA and indeed the world.

Taking place over three days of the Heritage Day long weekend in August, the festival features 30 individual acts or performers, family-friendly site, a free downtown concert on festival Friday evening, a kids’ area jammed with crafts, puppets, music, storytelling and a climbing wall. Its venue is the downtown Centennial Park in the heart of Canmore’s valley bottom. Surrounded on all sides by the majestic Rocky Mountains, the backdrop of breathtaking scenery merely enhances the incredible music pouring forth from four stages all weekend long.

The workshop stages partner up eclectic mixings of musicians from disparate and diverse backgrounds, often resulting in that ephemeral “lightning in a bottle” sound that will never be recreated twice.

Do you have a child who loves all things creative? Each afternoon campers will sample a variety of dance styles, including tap, ballet, hip hop, jazz and musical theatre with a dance instructor. The mornings will be spent exploring arts and crafts, including building props and/or costume pieces to enhance their choreography for a Friday showcase. Camp takes place Tuesday August 8-Friday, August 11 at the Culture Services Centre, 3827-39 Street, Red Deer. Register for course #84454 only at www.reddeer.ca/looknbook, by phone at 403-309-4091 or in person at any City of Red Deer recreation facility.

The Wellness Ride began in 2009 and is a fundraiser for the Canadian Mental Health Association and the Central Alberta Brain Injury Society.

Participation in the ride has grown every year, but it remains a relatively small (and very friendly) event.  The 10km and 25km rides will take place on the beautiful trails of Red Deer, while the 50km and 100km rides will take place on the highway from Red Deer to Delburne.

This is a family friendly event!

In 2017, the Wellness Ride will take place on Saturday, August 19^th.

To register and to learn more, please visit: www.wellnessride.ca

Berry Architecture Community Wellness Ride in Support of Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA)-Central Alberta Region and Central Alberta Brain Injury Society (CABIS) Registrations are now being accepted for the 9^th Annual Berry Architecture Community Wellness Ride taking place on August 19^th, 2017 in Red Deer. “This is a great opportunity for the community to get behind two local agencies that provide support services and programming for individuals and families impacted by mental health issues, addiction, and acquired brain injuries,” says Trish McAllister-Hall, Executive Director for CMHA Central Alberta Region. Cyclists can choose from one of four distances to ride: 10 km, 25 km, 50 km, or 100 km.  The 10 and 25 km rides will take place on the trails of Red Deer, while the 50 and 100 km rides will take place on the highway from Red Deer to Delburne. Co-Chairs Melissa Brilz and Angela Darbel are excited about the improvements being made this year.  The addition of the 10 km ride, and moving the 25 km ride in to the City is the most significant change.  “While the support we have received from cyclists willing to ride 50 km or 100 km has been amazing over the years, we found that it really limited participation to the experienced rider.  It is our hope that by having the option to ride shorter distances, the event will be more appealing to the casual rider and families”. The registration fee is $25.00 and minimum pledge amounts are required based on the distance being ridden. For additional information and to register, please visit the event page at www.wellnessride.ca. Sponsorship packages for the event are also available by contacting CMHA at (403) 342-2266.
