Tourtière is a wonderful French Canadian comfort food, loved by all, and each year on Francophone Cultural Day at Deep Freeze we serve homemade, delicious tourtière. Again this year we have challenged local cooks to come and show-off their best tourtière recipe in our Tourtière Baking Challenge.
Results will be announced at 5:00 pm at The Hearth Stage.
Champions of Alberta Avenue is short documentary film and photographic project of Arts on the Ave Edmonton Society, which celebrates those business owners who left their homeland over the past forty years, spoke little or no English on arriving in Edmonton, and started a new life and business here on historic Alberta Avenue. In this project, we focus on eleven of the many successful businesses started by immigrants and refugees on Alberta Avenue, and we would like to thank each of them for the generous support and kind participation in this project. We also thank Moving Artistry Productions for their work on this special short doc project.
