SUMMARY:The Paint Spot Presents: Unfinished Painting Challenge
DESCRIPTION:Is your goal is to get to your studio more in 2026? Then this challenge is made for you.  \nEvery artist has at least one of those paintings: the one you can’t seem to finish. This is a great opportunity to get rid of those half-finished works cluttering your studio\, and while you’re at it\, get inspired by someone else’s half-finished work. You may decide to swap with another artist. After all\, one person’s junk is another person’s treasure.  \nHowever\, for the painting challenge day\, you can bring your own piece and finish it. We will take before and after images and then you can be part of the exhibition at The Paint Spot. \nWhen: Saturday\, January 3rd\, from 9 AM to 9 PM\nWhere: The Paint Spot\, 10032 81 Ave NW\nCost: FREE! \nThis is part of an ongoing painting exchange event running from mid-December to mid-February. Then all paintings will be collected and put on display at The Paint Spot from February 23 – April 23\, 2026. There will also be an online gallery of the before and after.

SUMMARY:Fringe Theatre Presents: Evie and Alfie: A Very British Love Story
DESCRIPTION:ONE NIGHT ONLY – February 14\, 2026… Experience this brand-new comedic play from multiple award-winning FRINGE LEGENDS Alex Dallas (Horseface\, Sensible Footwear) and Jimmy Hogg (The Potato King). \nEvie & Alfie is a romantic comedy\, a love story. At once a hilarious examination of enduring relationships—the ties that bind us together—and a nostalgic photo album that shows us the lives led by the titular couple. \nWe are introduced to the elderly retirees in their home\, as they potter about making tea\, bird-spotting and wondering whether Tuesday is in fact the day that the bins go out. Then\, through a series of flashbacks\, we see snippets of their lives—when they first met\, a marriage proposal\, their first foreign holiday\, and birth of a child. \nAs we bounce between the past and the present\, we learn the full-extent of what it takes to make their relationship work. Genuinely hilarious and relatable\, Evie & Alfie is a story full of wit\, verve\, and heart. \nAge Rating: Parental Guidance (PG)\nThis show contains: Adult Language/Content\nApproximate Run Time: 60 minutes (no intermission) \nWhen: Saturday\, February 14\, 2026\, 7:30 PM\nWhere: Fringe Theatre Arts Barns | The Westbury Theatre\, 10330 84 Ave NW\nCost: $26
