Meet Lynn Martel A long-time Canadian Rockies resident, Lynn Martel has authored three books and hundreds of articles highlighting the people, places and unique culture of Western Canada’s mountain world. An accredited Interpretive Hiking Guide, accomplished outdoor photographer, backcountry skier and glacier traveler, Stories of Ice is her third book. About The Event Join us for an incredible evening with Lynn Martel , she will be sharing tales and spectacular photography from Stories of Ice: Adventure, Commerce and Creativity on Canada’s Glaciers at the BAG in Squamish. Her book chronicles the glacial exploits of a collection of fascinating individuals—explorers, professional guides, tourism operators, scientists, artists, filmmakers—and in the process, weaves together the rich history of Western Canada’s glaciers. Stories include the mother/daughter duo who skied for five months from Squamish to Skagway, carrying their tents and food. North America’s earliest glacier studies beginning in 1894 on BC’s Illecillewaet Glacier. Or the ski mountaineer who fell in a crevasse, was rescued, then learned his pack melted out 12 years later! Or how BC protesters camped for weeks to protect their cherished local glacier from development. All set to a stunning collection of glacier photographs , and sprinkled with humour and insight . Lynn will also share information on the International Year of Glaciers’ Preservation, how the initiative aims to recognize all that our glaciers give us, and how their melting will affect us. This is a ticketed event, please purchase your tickets in advance. Information Source: Brackendale Art Gallery | eventbrite

Standing show, limited seating. All ages event. Come early for dinner & drinks, seating for dining in the upstairs gallery and on the patio. Tickets: Early Bird $20 / Advance $25 / Door $30 8pm - 8:45pm opening set by Tequila Monkeys 9pm - 10pm Uncle Strut headlining set In a short amount of time, Vancouver-based indie band Uncle Strut have turned their dive bar beginnings into sellout headlining shows at legendary venues like their hometown’s Hollywood Theatre, and have shared stages with acclaimed acts such as the Goo Goo Dolls, Baby Jake, and George Thorogood. Over the last four years, singer/guitarist Tyson McNamara, bassist Simon Tejani, and drummer Quincy Flowers have honed their signature blend of surf-infused indie pop, evoking the hazy sun-soaked nostalgia of the '70s. With the recent addition of guitarist Jasper Matthias, the band is kicking off 2025 with the anticipated announcement of their debut album, and an upcoming tour acrossCanada. Home At Last, Uncle Strut’s first full-length album, seamlessly combines the easygoing charm of Australian surf rock with a deep respect for rock and pop traditions. The album’s playful yet sincere energy draws comparisons to Spacey Jane and Ocean Alley, whilst channeling the spirit of late '60s psychedelia. Influences from The Doors’ mystical allure and The Beach Boys’ kaleidoscopic vision are ever-present, making Home At Last a captivating listen. Uncle Strut will release Home At Last on May 16th, and in celebration will embark on a tour across British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario and Quebec in support of their first single, Waiting For You. Opening set by Tequila Monkeys The Tequila Monkeys are a band that blend the smooth vibes of reggae, the trippy grooves of psych-rock, and the upbeat energy of ska into a sound all their own. Drawing inspiration from modern laid-back tunes of bands like Ocean Alley and Sticky Fingers together with the dynamic rhythms of the classics of Sublime and Bob Marley... The Tequila Monkeys create music that feels both nostalgic and fresh. Their music weaves together infectious rhythms, dreamy guitar riffs, lively keys and soulful vocals, creating a vibrant atmosphere that’s impossible to resist and always gets people moving. Whether it’s beach days, forest raves or snowy après.. The Tequila Monkeys bring the party and a banger show wherever they go.
