Creative Flow - Yoga in the Park

Elephant Artist Relief Society (EAR) invites you to Creative Flow, a free outdoor community yoga series happening every weekend this September at Sien Lok Park.

Each session blends gentle movement, breath, and creativity in a beautiful riverside setting. Whether you’re brand new to yoga or already have an established practice, this is a space to recharge outdoors, connect with community, and celebrate wellness through art and movement.

Opera Pub at Blue Chair

This isn’t your typical night at the opera. Opera Pub is where music meets mischief. From soaring arias to unexpected musical theatre pieces, no two nights are ever the same. And that’s exactly how we like it.

Whether you’re a lifelong opera fan or just here for a good time, Opera Pub is the perfect way to unwind midweek with a pint in hand and some seriously stunning vocals just a few feet away. Expect students, stars, surprise guests, and always a few curveballs.

Admission is Free
Opera Pub is free to attend. No tickets, no cover charge.

Audacious

Please join us for AUDACIOUS, where longtime colleagues Shona Rae & Barb Temple create work rooted in life, death and the messy business of growing up.  By reclaiming discarded, once-loved objects, they transform the overlooked into vessels of critique, reflection and resilience.  From Rae’s decorative tins reimagined as landscapes to Temple’s shadow boxes of rescued baby dolls, Audacious invites viewers to reconsider what is forgotten - and see existence itself as fragile, unpredictable, and worthy of attention. With 45 pieces of art to discover you may want to stay awhile!
