Festival Of Learning

Well, today would have been the first day we gathered in celebration for the Burnaby Festival of Learning. We are sad we cannot come together at this time, but we are thankful to forge such meaningful relationships with each of our community, civic and business partners. Thanks go to each of our partners who continue to do incredible support work in the community through this time! Until we see you again, here’s a throwback photo from last year’s festival! Stay well, friends.
