Look out over the Fraser River, one of the world’s last remaining great salmon rivers and then immerse yourself in UninterruptedVR! Starting July 1st, the Fraser River Discovery Centre will have twice daily showings–there are only 5 seats per showing though so be sure to pre-register at:

The Adams River, where much of the UNINTERRUPTED filming took place, is a tributary of the Fraser–which makes the Discovery Centre a perfect spot to enjoy the experience! It’s happening all summer – so share the reservation link with friends. Plus, when you visit the centre you can discover more about the Fraser!

Or Far Away...

If you’re travelling to Taiwan or if you have friends and relatives around the city of Kaohsiung, you can let them know UninterruptedVR is coming to the Kaohsiung Film Archive (KFA) and VR Lab throughout July. The exhibition is part of FESTICA, a program of Canadian arts and culture spanning over a year in Taiwan and organized by the Canadian Trade Office in Taipei (CTOT).

This is UninterruptedVR’s first international swim so we really appreciate the invitation from CTOT and KFA, as well as touring support from the Canada Council for the Arts.

Learning More

In the last few months UninterruptedVR has been in school–literally. A big thanks to University Hill Elementary in Vancouver and Pinetree Secondary in Coquitlam for hosting the test presentations of our school pilot–and with appreciation to Fisheries and Oceans Canada, Pacific Region (Salmonid Enhancement Program)  for supporting the project, and to our two teacher guides Melody and Kerry. 

We’re now reviewing all that we learned in the pilot, including feedback from students and teachers, and exploring the possibility of presenting in Lower Mainland schools in the coming academic year. Our plans are still developing but if you’re connected to a school that you think might be interested, send us an email: hello@uninterrupted.ca.

Have a great summer everyone, and if you’re enjoying recreation close to local streams or the ocean shoreline, keep in mind that salmon habitat could be right beneath you!

A final shout out to the many supporters mentioned in this blog.

They are part of a great network of champions that has helped to make UNINTERRUPTED happen and evolve. Our thanks to you all!
