Kindness lives on, whether orchestrated or random, in downtown Langley later this week.
You’ve Gotta Have Friends is hosting its annual Flower Power Day on Friday, May 12.
They’ll be travelling around the downtown core of Langley City handing out flowers and smiles.
In the meantime, there’s also an upcycle exhibit on display this week, that’s worth a look.
What can be done with old stuff, short of sending it to the landfill or recycling depot?
Well, see what some creative Langley residents were able to do to reinvent found or recycled objects in this year’s Upcycling Design Challenge.
Those creations went on exhibit at Willowbrook Shopping Centre Wednesday, and will remain until May 21.
This is a joint initiative from the Township of Langley and the Langley Arts Council.
Residents have a chance to vote on their favourite piece, and in doing so could win a $100 mall gift card.
As for the best pieces of upcycled art, those will be announced during an awards reception at the mall on May 18, from 6 to 8 p.m.
And, each year, the Langley Camera Club hosts the Fraser Valley Invitational photography competition.
In past, it has been hosted in Fort Langley. But this year, the 17th annual event, has a new location.
It’s moved to Clayton Heights Secondary School, this Saturday, May 13, from 7:30 to 10 p.m. The school is located at 7003 188th St.
The theme to this year’s digital competition is music, and photo clubs from throughout the Lower Mainland are once again participating. Tickets are $18 in advance
at www.langleycameraclub/fvi, or $20 at the door.
