Culture Days in Rossland
#CultureDays is a national celebration of our incredible arts and culture across the country - this year's theme is: Creativity, the Arts, and Well-being! Participatory arts and culture events are popping up all over Canada and BC, and we've gathered a bunch of exciting free or low-cost events by our local orgs and businesses here in Rossland!
