Artisans in the Woodward’s Heritage Building Atrium

July 15, 2013 by CACV Admin

While wandering through the Woodward's atrium, 111 West Hastings Street, I chanced upon a group of tables with artisan wares displayed.  These talented people were selling their hand-crafted goods.   I remember jewelry, pottery, greeting cards, stylish leather ware, and furniture, both ready and custom, made from recycled, upcycled wood. You can see some of their work, in this slide show.  My …

March 16, 2013 by CACV Admin

The 2012 Eastside Swarm

September 16, 2012 by CACV Admin

    I just listened to an interview with Lou Reed, an old interview, some time in the 1970's where he has great fun with the journalists, all straight faced.  You can listen to it on uwall.tv.   Okay, so this is not what the headline to this post says, but thought it would be nice to see how hard I work to get this blog out:)  Oh, right, and I also listened to Jeff …
