I went to the annual Women in Film Festival ( WIFF at womeninfilm.ca ) this weekend at the Vancity Theatre. WIFF Director and Film Producer Robyn Wiener suggested I come out and see what WIFF 2010 is about this year. Women are making strides in the film industry as most visibly seen by Kathryn Bigelow’s Academy Award for Best Director at the Oscars. The Festival showcases and promotes the great work being done by women in writing, producing, directing, lead acting, or editing roles.

On Saturday I spent a memorable evening at Heritage Vancouver's first event for their Long Table Social series called: Heritage & the Arts: Inaugural Long Table Social. ‘Heritage and the Arts’ is a new Heritage Vancouver program connecting the visual arts with Vancouver’s heritage structures. The event took place at the Page building located at 330 West Pender. We had to enter the building from the back lane, which gave the event a 1940's speak easy or 1990 underground feel to start the evening.
