InterUrban Gallery, 1 E. Hastings, entrance on Carrall
Also November 6

The Festival is pleased to partner with Jim Sands Presents on Jim’s one-man show that tells the story of three friends, one long weekend, and how a casual search for a legendary Japanese flute turns into a life and death journey: a journey that would change their lives forever. The play is inspired by the life and questing spirit of Dan Meichel, a Calgary based jazz musician whose music touched many lives. DTES musician Mike Richter and multi-instrumentalist Michel Vles join Jim for a moving evening of theatrical storytelling
This event was on Day 10 of the 12 Days of the Heart of the City Festival. Please check the website for more events!
