It was a beautiful weekend to stand outside in lineups at the eight pavilions featured at the 13th annual Winter Festival, which took place Jan. 28-30.
Included in this year’s “Eight Pavilion Culture Crawl” were Mauritian at Central United Church, Chinese at Knox United Church, Brazil at the Ukrainian National Home, Scottish in the Imperial Ballroom at the Victoria Inn, Irish in the Royal Oak Inn, English in the Grand Salon at the Victoria Inn, Ukrainian at the Ukrainian Reading Association Hall, and Métis at the Western Manitoba Centennial Auditorium.
At all the venues, folks could enjoy a snapshot of the music, art, dance and cuisine of each culture.
