SUMMARY:Fair Trade Rug Event
DESCRIPTION:Bunyaad fair trade rugs are back in town!  \nCome and explore over 300 rugs (from 2×3- 9×12) and dozens of pillows! \nIf you ever had the opportunity to browse a Ten Thousand Villages store in B.C. you will likely remember their gorgeous heirloom quality one-of-a-kind rugs. Sadly since the majority of the Ten Thousand Villages stores have closed\, Bunyaad has not had a home for their rugs on the Island.  \nHansell & Halkett Vintage Home Decor is honoured to partner with Bunyaad to bring the rugs back to Sidney. The Fair Trade Rug Event will take place June 14-23 at the Sidney Pier Hotel and will feature over 200 hand-knotted rugs\, from intricate florals to hand-spun wool natural dye tribals\, from 2’x3’s to 9’x12’s\, along with dozens of pillows and mug rugs (coasters).  \nAll of the rugs are made with consistently high- quality materials and dyeing techniques. The rugs are made using locally sourced wool\, cotton and silk\, By the time a rug is designed\, knotted\, sheared\, washed\, stretched\, and finished it will have passed through the hands of approximately 15 rug experts to make sure it can withstand anything life throws at it.  \nBunyaad was founded in Pakistan in the 1960s with a mission to provide a fair and vital income to Pakistani rug makers who otherwise would have very few sustainable outlets for their craft and artistry. Today Bunyaad works with over 850 families throughout 100 villages in Pakistan. Unlike many contemporary rug companies\, Bunyaad supports their artisans to make their own artistic and technical decisions. They believe in the inherent value of the rug making tradition and in the value of art for art sake. As a result\, no two rugs are the same.  \nSo mark your calendars\, because even if you’re not in the market for a hand knotted rug\, these are worth seeing just to admire the unbelievable craftmanship that it takes to create these masterpieces. They are all truly works of art. Bunyaad director and son of the founder\, Yousaf Chaman will also be on hand to answer any questions you might have.

SUMMARY:Sentence by Sentence- The Journey of the Story: June 26\, 10am- 1pm
DESCRIPTION:Program hours: 10am- 1pm \nAges: +16 \nIt’s a misnomer to describe writing as “discovering what you want to say.” The fact is that you don’t know what you want to say in advance of the journey. You’re taking a leap into the unknown. All you know is what to take with you—your laptop\, a cup of coffee\, and your imagination. As the American novelist E.L. Doctorow says\, “Writing is like driving at night in the fog. You can only see as far as your headlights\, but you can make the whole trip that way.” \nJoin Patricia Robertson\, award-winning author of three critically acclaimed short story collections\, for a writing workshop in which you’ll start a story with a writing prompt and learn strategies for how to keep going. \nThis workshop is designed for all levels of writing ability. No previous writing experience is necessary. \nSupplies: Please bring paper and pen or a laptop. No other supplies needed. \nInstructor: Patricia Robertson’s third collection of short fiction\, Hour of the Crab\, was named co-winner of the Margaret Laurence Award for Fiction in 2022. Her first collection was nominated for a BC Book Award in fiction. Her work has also been nominated for the Pushcart Prize\, the Journey Prize\, and three National Magazine Awards\, and has appeared in Best Canadian Stories and Best Canadian Essays. She has served as writer-in-residence at libraries and universities across Canada and now lives in Victoria\, where she writes stories with one foot firmly in this world and the other somewhere else.
