Friday Nite Live - Drifting Tunes

Clare McNaul and Blain Bovee first met in a Deadwood saloon and quickly discovered their shared love of song. Now performing as Drifting Tunes, they’ve spent decades creating a warm, inviting blend of Folk, Roots, Americana, and Country. Clare’s rich, earthy vocals pair beautifully with Blain’s tender harmonies and guitar, bringing to life songs inspired by their travels, experiences, and the people they’ve met along the way.

Museum Skills Workshops: Ice Age Crash Course

How do you know the difference between a Mastodon and a Mammoth tooth? How about a Bison’s foot from a Horse’s? These skills and many more are key for Paleontologists as they piece together Alberta’s frozen past.    

In this workshop, the Royal Alberta Museum's Quaternary Paleontology Team will teach you basic comparative anatomy of Ice Age fossils, and how you can examine a skeleton to identify an animal group or species.
