Denman Island Baroque Festival to Present Venus and Adonis Opera

community · 2022-04 · Denman Island

The Denman Island Baroque Festival, led by sponsors Andrew Fyson and Robert Newton, will present the opera Venus and Adonis by John Blow. The festival includes workshops, community participation, and performances by professional and amateur musicians, with a focus on local involvement and education.

This is the archive, not the newspaper. Between 2018 and 2026 this site compiled these items automatically from public community sources — chiefly The Islands Grapevine, regional news feeds and community groups. They were not written by a reporter and were not held to the standards this publication now applies. The archive is kept because it is a useful dated record of what happened on Denman, and it is labelled because pretending otherwise would be the first thing we would tell you not to trust. Current reporting is at The Denman Firestarter.
