The community is encouraged to add rocks to a Biodiversity Rock Garden located in a meadow at Queen’s Park. The meadow is located at the former Arenex site next to the Bernie Legge Theatre. When designing your rocks, please keep a biodiversity theme in mind such as insects, frogs, salmon or leaves. Let’s line the pathway of the meadow with rocks. To get the project started the workshops noted below have also been organized, but you are also encouraged to paint rocks at home and to bring them to the meadow.

Youth Services, Royal City Sound, DJ’s are back at the pier! Join us on Friday nights at Westminster Pier Park for some tunes. DJ’s will be mixing music and Youth Workers will be wandering the park with prizes and games.

You may notice an artist at work in Hume Park in July. Local artist, Nickie Lewis, is working on a special project at Hume Park. Full details will be revealed in August. Nickie specializes in the creation of art installations that focus on nature and sustainability. From dragons to trolls, fairies to mermaids and Star Wars Ewoks, she conjures the whimsical and mythical.

Exploring a park on a rainy day or having fun at a spray park? On a rainy day, look out for water activated designs in front of the Moody Park Youth Centre and Queen's Park Sportsplex. Water activated designs have also been added to the pathways near the Ryall Park, Moody Park and Hume Park spray parks. Rainworks is an invisible spray that, when applied to the sidewalk, is invisible and looks just like a regular sidewalk, until it is activated by water. When wet, designs that will brighten your day will be revealed.
