Sustainability Marketplace - This Weekend

This coming weekend is probably the most exciting part of the 30 Days of Sustainability - The Sustainability and You Marketplace. (It's also my birthday on Sunday. *cough*)

For the three days, UBC Robson Square will be awash in cool stuff to do, watch, and listen to. Spoken word, music, a demonstration on how to recycle vintage sweaters into fabulous fashions, workshops on greening your home renovations... and lots of cool peeps, I'm sure. Probably even me. :)

FYI, if you are a photo-geek, please take lots of pictures, and upload the good ones to Flickr, as per the directions on this page. I'd love to see more images in the gallery!

Heya!

I'll be performing a short show on the mainstage Friday at 6 and Saturday at 5:15. Stop by if you're around. This looks like a great event.

About this Site

A hodge-podge of random thoughts, musings, and links – sometimes about social change, sometimes about technology and the web, sometimes about yoga, and occasionally about knitting. Sometimes (because I'm a Canadian girl with deep roots in the British Isles) I even write about the weather.

I'm a yoga teacher, founder of Yoga for Geeks, and a freelance web writer, strategist, and project manager. I also help to co-create the amazing Web of Change Conference, every September in beautiful British Columbia.
