Take part in an Easter Egg Hunt, watch the 102nd Chilliwack Plowing Match, and explore the Sweet Spring Flower and Animal Festival at Greendale Acres this Spring for fields of family fun.
The roots of Greendale Acres were planted in 1999 when John and Diane Bruinsma teamed up with Lloyd and Wendy Taekema. They began transforming the old Bruinsma dairy farm into Canada’s first corn maze as part of an effort to connect the community with agriculture. Now, the farm is operated by John and Diane’s three daughters along with their husbands and nine small children who all share in the labour of love and the common goal of reconnecting people with nature and agriculture.

Gender inequities in online spaces like Wikipedia contribute to a bias in content and language and erasure of knowledge and histories of women artists and communities. Surrey Art Gallery in partnership with Rungh Magazine would like to address the significant gender gap on Wikipedia and invite people of all gender identities and expressions to make an impact and support gender equality and the arts.
Research, develop, and deepen content about underrepresented women, Black, Indigenous, and people of colour and non-binary artists on one of the world’s most popular sites. Participants will learn how to research, create a user account, publish Wikipedia pages, and edit as well as maintain entries.
You are welcome to come with ideas for entries that need updating or creating. Pre-researched subjects from the Gallery’s permanent collection will also be available for entry. No prior knowledge or practice of editing Wikipedia is required. However, to create new entries, participants must be registered Wikipedia users and have made ten previous edits on existing pages.
