Century House is gearing up for some special celebrations this summer – and you’re invited.
Aside from its regular offerings, Century House is working on plans for a couple of special events this summer. You’ll want to jot down these dates on your calendar:
Wednesday, Aug. 10:
The second annual Pride Hoedown, part of the New West Pride Week celebration, takes place from 1 to 3:30 p.m. at Century House.
Everyone is invited to enjoy an afternoon of hoedown fun – square dancing, two-step and line dancing. The hoedown includes demonstrations and assistance for those who need a little help on the dance floor. Folks of all ages are invited to attend this free event that’s sponsored by the Century House Seniors Gay Straight Alliance. Summer refreshments will be provided.
Saturday, Aug. 13 and Sunday, Aug. 14:
The New Westminster Cultural Crawl at Century House will showcase the talents of more than 40 artisans including art, crafts, photography, quilts, pottery, jewelry, soapstone and more.
Along with celebrating the talent and creativity of these seniors, you’ll have a chance to view displays and engage with the artists. On Saturday, you can enjoy a summer tea at 11:30 a.m. for $5.
If you can’t wait to check out these activities, why not consider one of the classes being offered at Century House this summer? A variety of fitness, arts and recreational programs are offered throughout the summer – just pop into 620 Eighth St. to get a brochure with all the details.
