A PERSONAL THANK YOU!
We are so thankful for all the love and support—it truly means the world to us and to our incredible Cowichan community and Chemainus.

This non-profit festival is planned by our small but mighty TWO person BIA—Krystal & Kelly and this year our lovely summer student Aniela. We work to bring this event to life alongside all the other Chemainus BIA commitments and events we host throughout the year. We do all of the marketing, web design, planning, and arrangements ourselves. We answer every email, social comment, and phone call personally. And our partners play a big role too. TravelBar was on-site to host the after party, and help us execute set-up, day of and tear down. Plus music help and other bits. Our rockstar realtor Mikey was heading everything admin related and generally just being her amazing self - this woman is amazing. The Canucks Autism Network was doing the donation portion and raising funds for on-island programs. Of course the Municipality of North Cowichan who lets us use their amazing space. And most of all, ALL of the Volunteers and people we hire for the day who make this possible!!!

This festival has grown into the largest of its kind on the Island, bringing nearly 2,000 people together to celebrate and connect right here in Chemainus. As a non-profit, we use the funds to pay for infrastructure, rentals, product, and staffing.

Your encouragement makes every bit of effort worthwhile, and we couldn’t do it without you.
