SUMMARY:Songsmith Sundays with Carter Felker
DESCRIPTION:Every week\, country-folk singer-songwriter Carter Felker presents a chill weekend set with a rotating cast of guests. \nThis family-friendly show is best paired with our delicious Sunday brunch! \nBrunch menu: https://kingeddy.ca/menu \nAbout Carter Felker: \nBorn and raised in the Prairies\, Carter Felker’s eyes have seen the length of the wheat fields through many winter mornings\, and the stretch of the sun through many short-lived summers. He has laboured\, he has lost\, and he has loved. Carter uses his own experience\, and his desire to tell a story to create honest\, human-made\, country music. \n“Carter Felker traffics in music\, yes\, but even more profoundly in essence: the humdrum essence of Monday morning alarms clocks coming round again during lifetimes ticking on through thoughtless dawn moments walking across the kitchen floor; the craven essence of sneaking wordlessly away from a relationship and feeling the mute screen door sag shut behind you; the essence of everyday struggles.” – MLW \n— \nMusic starts at 11:30 amNo cover

SUMMARY:PlayLab: Feet to the Beat
DESCRIPTION:Turn up the music and shake it out! Join us in PlayLab where we’ll be moving and grooving to a new style of dance each session. \n— \n11:00 am and 1:00 pm \nFree admission on Level 1 \n— \nAbout Kym Butler: \nKym has been a dance educator/movement instructor for almost 40 years. If it involves moving the body\, then she has facilitated the body moving. She has worked with figure skaters\, gymnasts\, models\, musicians and\, of course\, dancers. Kym has choreographed for music videos\, television commercials\, award ceremonies\, concert dance\, drag pageants\, parades and flash mobs. There is no age or skill limit in Kym’s classes\, she can teach any beginner and refine the seasoned artist. Her sessions are welcoming\, inclusive and most importantly\, fun! \n— \nAbout PlayLab: \nPlayLab is a hands-on sound playground where young visitors can discover how music works. With interactive stations that feature strings\, wind\, percussion\, and electronic instruments\, kids experiment with the building blocks of sound—pitch\, volume\, timbre\, and vibration. Pluck a string\, strike a drum\, blow into an organ\, or shape sound on a synth to hear how instruments create their unique voices. Designed for curiosity and creativity\, PlayLab encourages visitors to listen closely\, explore freely\, and learn how musicians turn sound into music. \nPlayLab is open to the public with free admission on Level 1 of Studio Bell every day from 10 am to 5 pm. Learn more at studiobell.ca/exhibitions/playlab. \nPlayLab is made possible with support from the Alberta Museums Association and the Radomski Foundation.
