SUMMARY:DOWNTOWN CANMORE HERITAGE WALK
DESCRIPTION:Registration for this event has closed due to reaching max capacity of participants. Join us for our next one on September 9th! \nCanmore has changed a great deal since it was founded in 1883\, evolving from a gritty railway depot to a coal mining town and then finally to an international resort destination. As a center first for the railroad and the industry\, Canmore was a place where you played hard and worked hard. Like many mining towns in southern Alberta and southeastern BC\, the community was faced with many economic ups and downs. \nOver the past century\, its history as a coal mining community has included boom-town architecture\, interesting characters\, exciting events\, and mine disasters. With the closure of the mine in 1979 and Canmore serving as a host community for the 1988 Winter Olympics\, the community has continued to evolve. Today\, it could be argued that as a resort community\, we play harder than we work as we enjoy the incredible mountain vistas and recreational amenities that Canmore offers today. \nWe invite you to experience our rich and colourful past by exploring Canmore’s built heritage and tracing the continued evolution of our community. Our Historical Downtown Walking Tour will take you to 10 places located within a 2 km radius of the Canmore Museum\, each with its own story to tell as part of the cultural and heritage mosaic of Canmore. The tour will start and end at the Canmore Museum. \nHosted in conjunction with Historic Calgary Week 2023.  This event is free for Museum members and the public; Museum members can book tickets online beginning April 1\, the general public can book tickets beginning April 25. \nABOUT YOUR GUIDE \nRob Alexander is a journalist\, author\, photographer\, and historian. He grew up in Canmore\, steeped in the history of the Canadian West and the sights and sounds of a coal mining town. With an affinity for ruins and abandoned sites\, he gravitated towards story and sense of place\, leading him to explore and share the history and heritage of the Bow Valley\, Alberta\, and Western Canada. He is a former reporter for the Rocky Mountain Outlook newspaper (still a freelancer though)\, author of The History of Canmore\, published in 2010 by Summerthought Publishing of Banff. Rob lives in Calgary where he works as the digitization specialist for Libraries and Cultural resources at the University of Calgary.

SUMMARY:CONCERT IN THE GARDEN
DESCRIPTION:Head down to the North West Mounted Police Barracks for the second night of the Canmore Heritage Festival. What better way to kick off the weekend than with a night of great music by talented musician\, Canmore’s own Charlie B. \nThis family-focused evening is free for the public; non-perishable items for the Canmore Food Bank will be collected. Bring your own lawn chair. Beer and other refreshments will be served. \nRegistration is highly recommended. \nABOUT YOUR ENTERTAINER\n \nCharlie B. delivers his smoldering version of the Blues in a polished\, high-energy package that unfailingly pull audiences to their feet. Known for his skillful guitar work and rich baritone voice\, deep grooves\, vocal artistry\, masterful musicianship\, and heartfelt messages of love and loss are all his signature. Decades of experience and thousands of miles traveled combine to make Charlie B an in-demand act. \nCharlie grew up in a musical household. His mother sang in the church and would fill the house with Big Mama Thornton and Bessie Smith records. But his Beethoven-loving father preferred young Charlie play classical music. So at eight years old\, he was given a violin. \n“He loved violin music and I hated it\,” says Butler with a laugh. “But I practiced day-in and day-out\, only because if I didn’t practice I didn’t eat.”\nHis mother finally convinced his father to let him trade the violin in for a guitar a few years later\, which he would eventually put to good use performing at family gatherings or neighbourhood parties and BBQs for nickels. \nIt certainly helped prepare him for a life in the blues\, as did having a bit of a nomadic childhood. Butler’s father was a military attaché for the U.S. State Department\, which meant he grew up all over the world. He graduated high school in Stuttgart\, Germany. \nAfter his own stint in the military\, Butler moved to New York where he became a fixture in the East Village’s blues and jazz scenes. He moved to Montreal in the ’70s and Calgary in the ’80s. Roughly 12 years ago\, he moved again and continued a globe-trotting career playing hotels and clubs throughout the world. \n  \nWITH SUPPORT FROM

DESCRIPTION:Canmore has changed a great deal since it was founded in 1883\, evolving from a gritty railway depot to a coal mining town and then finally to an international resort destination. As a center first for the railroad and the industry\, Canmore was a place where you played hard and worked hard. Like many mining towns in southern Alberta and southeastern BC\, the community was faced with many economic ups and downs. \nOver the past century\, its history as a coal mining community has included boom-town architecture\, interesting characters\, exciting events\, and mine disasters. With the closure of the mine in 1979 and Canmore serving as a host community for the 1988 Winter Olympics\, the community has continued to evolve. Today\, it could be argued that as a resort community\, we play harder than we work as we enjoy the incredible mountain vistas and recreational amenities that Canmore offers today. \nWe invite you to experience our rich and colourful past by exploring Canmore’s built heritage and tracing the continued evolution of our community. Our Historical Downtown Walking Tour will take you to 10 places located within a 2 km radius of the Canmore Museum\, each with its own story to tell as part of the cultural and heritage mosaic of Canmore. The tour will start and end at the Canmore Museum. \nABOUT YOUR GUIDE \nRob Alexander is a journalist\, author\, photographer\, and historian. He grew up in Canmore\, steeped in the history of the Canadian West and the sights and sounds of a coal mining town. With an affinity for ruins and abandoned sites\, he gravitated towards story and sense of place\, leading him to explore and share the history and heritage of the Bow Valley\, Alberta\, and Western Canada. He is a former reporter for the Rocky Mountain Outlook newspaper (still a freelancer though)\, author of The History of Canmore\, published in 2010 by Summerthought Publishing of Banff. Rob lives in Calgary where he works as the digitization specialist for Libraries and Cultural resources at the University of Calgary.

SUMMARY:DIXIELAND JAZZ BAND STREET PERFORMANCE
DESCRIPTION:The Canmore Dixieland Jazz Band will be performing in the Civic Centre courtyard on Saturday\, September 9th!  \nABOUT YOUR PERFORMERS \nThe Canmore Dixieland Jazz Band is a delightful local jazz ensemble comprised of nine talented musicians. \nInformally established around 2015\, the band originated when several musicians from Canmore gathered in Stan Horner’s garage\, with Stan being the drummer\, and began playing Dixieland tunes. Drawing inspiration from the early 20th-century style of jazz that emerged in New Orleans and the American South\, known as Dixieland or Traditional Jazz\, their music blends influences from ragtime\, blues\, brass band music\, and other traditional African American musical forms. \nThe band’s vibrant sound comes alive with energizing vocals and a front-line of instruments\, including trumpet\, trombone\, clarinet\, and saxophone\, accompanied by a rhythm section of banjo\, piano\, tuba and drums. \nThe band members\, each contributing their unique talents\, are Bob Bean on clarinet\, Doon Wilkins as the vocalist\, Heather Reese on banjo\, Lee Post on clarinet\, Robert Hudson playing the tuba\, Russ Peardon on trombone\, Thomas Krause handling the trumpet\, Wayne Schneider on saxophone\, and Yun-Chu Wu on piano. \nDespite their success\, the band remains a “not-for-profit” group\, driven by the pure joy of making music and spreading happiness. All earnings from their performances go back to the community through a “scholarship fund” for young musicians\, and their love for performing shines through in their appearances at various events and venues across the Bow Valley\, including Canada Day\, Good Earth Café\, Canmore Hotel\, The Legion\, The Origin\, The Bow Valley Senior Center\, Banff Gazebo\, Cochrane Culture Day\, and various fundraisers. \nhttps://www.facebook.com/canmoredixielandband
