Tickets will be sold on site only except when you purchase a ticket to the Thursday night gala party. A ticket to the gala includes party food and drinks plus a festival pass for the weekend and admission to the Rainforest Circus. Gala tickets can be purchased in advance at: syncfestgala2014.eventbrite.ca.
The Gibsons Public Art Gallery will sponsor a group exhibition entitled Our Forest from Aug. 21 to Sept. 15, with the opening reception on Aug. 23, from 4 to 6 p.m. The gallery is located at 431 Marine Drive in Lower Gibsons.
This show brings together some of the most recognized artists and artisans on the Sunshine Coast who work in a variety of mediums, styles and themes and the exhibition promises a range of interpretations that will both celebrate and provoke discussion around the forest that surrounds and sustains us.
