I’m overhearing friends talk about relationships and sex while they stand next to me in the lineup. The sounds of cool New Orleans Jazz plays intermingles with the conversation, then I realize it's not background music that I hear.

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.
