Show Times: 10am – 5pm, daily
Exhibition Details: This show is two collections of C F Parker’s recent art. Decades of making art stand behind the creation of these two collections. One is a series of watercolour & ink work, and a few copperplate etchings, based on hundreds of hours spent in the forest and beaches of the BC West Coast. They are expressive representational art, founded on a deep love of vibrant coast.
The second collection is larger pieces, mostly acrylic on canvas, exploring the energies and patterns and connections of the coastal forest. Often the ordinary is presented from a new perspective. This work is full of colour, energy and depth. It is a joy to be able to share these images with the public.
A wide selection of my work as 5″ x 7″ greeting cards will also be available.
Participants: Corinne Parker

Get Back Unplugged Performance
2025-05-23 19:00 - 21:30 | The Mary Winspear Centre, 2243 Beacon Ave, Sidney, BC, V8L 1W9, Canada
Seaside Music Festival Presents: Get Back – Unplugged… the Beatles Reimagined
Friday, May 23
Doors open @ 7:00pm, Show @ 7:30pm
Get Back Unplugged, The Beatles Reimagined aims to revisit some of the best loved songs of late-period Beatles, and to deliver them with the joy and spontaneity of friends singing around a kitchen table.
Bringing together six stellar singers and players who, between them, span the worlds of folk, Celtic, blues, jazz, and classical music, this intimate and engaging performance does not try to imitate the Fab Four, but rather seeks to present renditions that are authentic to the musicians’ own unique voices. A fiddle can give a dazzling guitar solo? An accordion can be a menacing bulldog? With renditions ranging from Nova Scotia folk music vibes to classic Tina Turner, audiences marvel at this group’s incredible interpretations!
‘Get Back Unplugged’ started as an idea of Vancouver-based folk-pop trio The Wahs, after seeing the recent Peter Jackson-produced documentary about the famous Get Back recording sessions and the celebrated Beatles rooftop concert.
Featuring The Wahs:
Cameron Wilson, Violin, vocals
Andrew Hillhouse, Vocals, guitar
Brent Gubbels, Bass

Saturday, May 24
Doors open @ 7:00PM, Show @ 7:30PM
Heart singlehandedly broke the mold of male-dominant rock in 1976 with their debut album ‘Dreamboat Annie’, which featured hits Crazy On You, Magic Man and Barracuda. Subsequent albums gave us hits such as Heartless, Straight On, Tell It Like It Is, What About Love?, Never, These Dreams, Nothin’ At All, Alone, Who Will You Run To and All I Wanna Do Is Make Love To You.
Barracuda captures the sound of Heart down to the finest detail both vocally and instrumentally, and have to be seen to be believed!
