Join us for a creative afternoon at Reimagining Displaced Species, an intergenerational crafting and dialogue event on Saturday, April 5th, from 12:30 PM – 3:30 PM at the Millard Learning Centre. (10825 Porlier Pass Rd)

In collaboration with The Yellowhouse, we’ll transform introduced plant species into beautiful, handcrafted keychains—while exploring the deeper story of these species and their impact on our ecosystems.

This is a unique opportunity to blend art, ecology, and community in a hands-on, meaningful way. Spaces are limited—register now to secure your spot!

Joshua Ralph, the artist in residence in Yellowhouse, will be facilitating the crafting.

Joshua is an uninvited settler-occupier on the stolen and shared lands of the Tsleil-Waututh, Squamish, and Musqueam Nations. He is a community-engaged media and eco-artist interested in changed and changing ecologies, advocating for collaboration on the intersections between art-making and varied understandings of the “natural” world. 

With a focus on digital compositing, his animated works have screened in dozens of venues internationally, including Ottawa International Animation Festival, Innsbruck Nature Film Festival, and Vaasa Wildlife Festival. He currently works professionally in the animation field and can often be found in the bushes partaking in environmental restoration volunteering or logging a cool bug on iNaturalist. https://joshuaralphart.com

This event is being held on the unceded, asserted & shared traditional territories of Penelakut, Lamalcha, Hwlitsum and other Hul’qumi’num and SENĆOŦEN speaking peoples, Coast Salish Peoples of Galiano, as well as the ceded territories of Tsawwassen First Nation, on what is now known as Galiano Island.
