  2. If you haven’t checked out the Luminescence show at the Deer Lake Gallery, go give it a look. The opening reception drew enormous crowds, and the lineup to get in was down the street. Luminescence is a group show, and the theme is light. The exhibit is on until April 9. The gallery, at 6584 Deer Lake Ave., is closed on Friday for the Easter holiday but open Saturday from noon to 4 p.m. and closed Sunday.
  3. Celebrate Easter on Sunday with an evening of singing at New Westminster Christian Reformed Church, at 8255 13th Ave. in Burnaby, on Sunday, March 27 at 7 p.m. The Gloria Dei Trio will participate and lead the singing session, and the public is invited to join in. There will be musicians playing the organ, piano, trumpet and flugelhorn.
  4. Get outside on Saturday for a stroll in Fraser Foreshore Park. There’s an off-leash area for dogs, and the park is relatively flat, making it the perfect place for a family bike ride. The park also has washroom facilities and picnic tables. The weather is supposed to be sunny on Saturday and Monday, but it will likely rain on Sunday.
  5. The Edmonds Community Centre is hosting weekly social dancing sessions for seniors this Sunday, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Admission is $2 (members only pay $1). The centre is at 7433 Edmonds St.
