“We were excited to partner with the City of Camrose for an outdoor free Fountain Tire Family Series event during Alberta Culture Days,” explained Jeannie and Peter Lougheed Performing Arts Centre general manager Nick Beach. “We were so happy to present magician Sheldon Cassavant with his show, Exploring the Impossible (held outdoors on museum grounds). This was our first large-gathering event since March 2020, with over 400 adults and children enjoying this great family fun. “I strongly believe that Camrose is one of the most culturally alive cities in Canada, so it was really great to see us be recognized as a top presenter community.” Some events occurring around Camrose during Culture Days tapped into the creative side of attendees as well through art classes and community painted murals. “The Camrose Arts Society is thrilled to have taken part in Culture Days

recognition, the event was so successful in highlighting the incredible arts and culture within the community, plans are already in the making for 2022. “One of the great things that came out of this is we have already decided we are doing this again next year,” said Patullo. “The collaboration and bringing it to the community,
