Ken Lavigne Movie Magic & The MAC is Parksville’s Arts Hub

(06:00) Dave Graham and Peter McCully welcome Jennifer Bate, Executive Director of the McMillan Arts Center (The MAC), who discusses the historic building’s significance, upcoming renovations, and its role as a cultural hub.

“I think that every community needs an artistic hub, a centre. Every artist needs a place where they feel that they have a sense of community,” says Bate. She details exciting upcoming events, including art exhibitions, workshops, and the celebration of Mount Arrowsmith Biosphere’s 25th anniversary.

(21:38) “You’re never more exposed and raw than when you’re singing for someone,” says Ken Lavigne, a founding member of the Canadian Tenors. Lavigne shares his musical journey, including his upcoming show “A Night at the Movies” with Van City Harmony.
