CULTURAL CRAWL 2012 – TOFINO
The Tofino Public Market - "Make it, Bake it, Grow it, or Gather it"
Vendors from Tofino, Ucluelet, across Van Isle and beyond showcase their artisan wares in a festive
atmosphere. There's live music on the Gazebo and lots of fresh, local food. We present public-interactive, art
workshops with a focus on First Nation's mediums like carving, weaving and painting. Great for kids big and
small, come join the fun on Tofino's beautiful Village Green every Saturday from the May long-weekend to
the end of September between 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM. http://www.tofinomarket.com
The Tofino Lantern Festival
7:00 pm to 10:30 pm Sunday, August 26th, 2012 Tofino Botanical Gardens
Held at the Tofino Botanical Gardens in late August each year, the Tofino Lantern Festival is the Raincoast
Education Society's 'signature' community event and fundraiser, drawing the young and old with an
unbelievable variety of handmade lanterns. Don't miss out on the magic! During the week leading up to the
Festival, we hold lantern-making workshops so you can create your own original lantern.
