Hospital Days
• Queen Charlotte Community Hall
Marine Matters initiated
the Stream to Sea of Dreams Community Project
based on the Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) Stream of
Dreams Program. Hosted by the DFO and World Wildlife Fund
Canada, the purpose is to bring awareness about marine conservation
issues to Islanders and visitors through a community art project where
participants of all ages will express their vision for the oceans'
future through the painting of plywood sea creatures. Marine
Matters will keep these sea creatures and kelp for creation
of a public art piece on the chain link fence of the Queen Charlotte
Community Hall. Through this and other public and school events over
the year, the art piece will expand in Queen Charlotte and to other
communities. Much appreciation to the shop instructor, Dave Greenough,
and students at Queen Charlotte High School for all the hard work
cutting out and priming the sea creatures!

Tlell Fall Fair
• Tlell Fairgrounds
Marine Matters hosted a
booth at the Tlell Fall Fair for the 4th consecutive year. As always,
we had a temporary touch tank to bring ocean creatures to the Islanders
and visitors. There were fun activities, games, information and even Stream
to Sea of Dreams sea life to paint!
