SUMMARY:Ed Talk: Watercolours with Weeds
DESCRIPTION:Join us and Brittany Eliadis\, EKISC Education & Outreach Manager\, for an engaging Watercolours with Weeds Ed Talk and workshop – where art meets action! We’ll begin with a short introduction to the East Kootenay Invasive Species Council (EKISC) and why managing invasive plants matters. You’ll get a crash course in Invasive Species 101\, then discover how some of these unwanted plants can actually be repurposed into vibrant\, natural paints. \nInstead of heading to the compost pile\, you’ll learn how to transform invasive species into beautiful works of art. All materials are provided\, and no artistic experience is required – just bring your curiosity and creativity! \nDoors open at 5:30 PM\, and tea and coffee will be served. Please note: this Ed Talk is capped at 35 participants\, so early registration is encouraged. \nREGISTRATION IS FULL\nWednesday\, August 27 | 6:00–8:00 PM | Registration is FREE! \n**Please note the time change for this month’s Ed Talk.  \nSpeaker Bios: \nBrittany is the new Education & Outreach Manager for the East Kootenay Invasive Species Council (EKISC). Originally from Barrie\, Ontario\, Brittany grew up surrounded by forests\, lakes\, and snowy winters—fueling a lifelong connection to the outdoors. She spent years dreaming of one day trading flatland forests for mountain peaks and has now made that dream a reality by relocating to the East-Kootenays—drawn by the breathtaking landscapes\, welcoming communities\, and endless opportunities for exploration and learning. \nBrittany holds a Bachelor’s degree in Physical and Health Education from Laurentian University where she earned her bilingual certificate. She went on to complete her Master of Teaching at the University of Toronto\, where she focused her thesis on outdoor education and land-based learning. Over the past five years\, Brittany has worked in both English and French public education across Canada (yes\, across Canada! Come ask her about it!)\, always striving to create meaningful\, hands-on learning experiences that connect people to their local environment. \nNow\, she is here with us! Her approach blends experiential education with a deep respect for place-based knowledge\, aiming to inspire stewardship through engaging outreach programs for everyone! \nShe’ll be joined by EKISC summer assistants Elissa Leduc (Forestry Student) and Cassidy Johnson (Education Student).
