Steveston through a different lens

For most locals, Steveston is just a beloved village we call home. It has wonderful nooks and crannies and many well-preserved historical sites.

But lets imagine our familiar village through a different lens.

What would the neighbourhood look like when captured on canvas by an impressionist painter?

Have a look at these images and tell me what you think... It was a purely fun what-if project that I hope would bring a smile to your face.

 Wishing you a Happy 2025 New Year

Take a moment from all the festivities to reflect on the beauty of Steveston and how fortunate we are to be a part of this historic fishing village.

May we continue to be blessed with community spirit, peace, contentment, and an overabundance of great restaurants, gelato shops, cafes, nail spas, hair salons, and pizzerias!

Life is good here!

 Steveston Walking Tour

Last week, while strolling past Steveston's Museum, I noticed a sign posted on the window announcing the return of the Steveston Walking Tours. What a wonderful surprise!

Back in August 2019, (yes, that happy pre-pandemic time), I and a friend signed up for the Steveston Alive! Walking Tour Vignettes. Presented by Steveston Historical Society, and interpreted by McRoberts Secondary School drama students, this one hour guided tour provided a travel back in time to 1917 with a play in five parts that promoted understanding and appreciation of the evolution of the Steveston community.

If only all history lessons could be this personal, colourful and entertaining!

 Chillin' in Steveston

Happy New Year 2022 from what feels like the coldest, snowiest corner of Lulu Island.
