As part of the event Early Shift- That's Funny! we had four comedians take over the Gold Rush area of the Modern History gallery. Here is Justine Drummond doing a set.

Participants editing stories with Korina from Story Studio.

A participant works on a word game. A difficult word game. Unless you live in backwards land!

Sea grapes, otherwise known as Halosaccion glandiforme. Look delicious but you might not want to actually eat them. Unless, of course, you love algae!

A young pirate and a friend-of-bears working with Paisley from Story Studio on their stories...

Korina telling a story about a famous BC train robber in the train station at Oldtown on the 3rd floor... you might want to keep hold of your watch while in Oldtown, and your parasol and feathered hat.

Despite the lovely time, all good things must come to an unexpected, exciting, exciting end...

Oh, all right, it might be bricks. Nice clean bricks. Not made of gold at all. However, there is a nice chair where you can sit and think and perhaps write the Great Canadian Novel.
