About the Event

​Join us for our third annual Creative Expressions event held in Bruno, Saskatchewan. The event is a way to share what artistic talents people have through crafts, their voices, dance, writing and more. Holding entertainment such as readings from some great authors, vocalists, crafts and so much more. A family-friendly event that has some activities for the children, and a variety of hand-crafted shopping to boot. 
This year, we will be hosting it during Cultural Days weekend, Saturday, September 28, 2019. Money received from this event goes directly to the event to help pay for stuff and not the business. We hope to see you there! Volunteers, entertainment, sponsors and vendors wanted.
