Before we chip away at another month of excitement and intrigue in DTK, the City of Kitchener is proud to announce its 2017 Artist in Residence, Julie Sperling. The mosaic artist's project,
Climate In Pieces: From Art to Action
, will engage people in making small pieces that represent steps toward reducing our carbon footprints.
And whether it behaves more like a lion or lamb, March is light on fluff. From the return of K-W Comedy Festival and Hockeytown to events inspired by International Women's Day or Irish heritage, you'll have a beast of a time laying low this month.
