Kensington Park is a gem among the city’s parks and gardens. Located at Knight and 33rd, it affords visitors one of the nicest panoramic views to be had – a vast sweep that allows the eye to take in quiet residential neighbourhoods, the modern architecture of downtown, and the North Shore mountains… all in one go.

Join us for a mid-week picnic in the park and check out this stunning spot. We’ll have some BBQs, hotdogs and burgers, and games to play. Come out and meet other public space enthusiasts, participate in a friendly round of bocce, and learn about a few of the exciting projects we have lined up for the fall. The event is FREE but please register so we can get a sense of numbers. BYO drinks.

I went to a party last night…

…and it was like nothing I’ve ever seen before. It started at 12:30am. It was outside under a bridge. The large billboard above our heads provided ample lighting. It wasn’t inconspicuous. I think there were well over 500 people there. They came to dance and have a good time. Many were perched on the steel beams that supported the bridge, enjoying the music and the sea of party-goers below. Others snaked along the railroad tracks. It felt like something out of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles or Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome. On nights like these, I wish I’d brought my bicycle and my camera.
