PRINCE GEORGE — Compared to the last two years, this weekend was chock full of events in Prince George.

The Ukrainian St. George’s Catholic Church had its annual Easter Sale on Saturday (April 2).

The church was selling various foods like cabbage rolls, easter baking, and perogies with proceeds going to the church as well as support and aid for Ukraine.

The sale was supposed to last until 2 p.m. — however, the church sold out in the first 45 minutes due to the overwhelming support from the community.

There will be more to buy at the second annual Easter Eggstravaganza next weekend.

The Prince George Public Library and Studio 2880 hosted their fifth annual Teen Art Showcase Saturday.

Thirty-three teens submitted art to the contest. Over 400 people cast a vote for the People’s Choice Award.

The winners were announced at the Bob Harkins location.

Winners were chosen for the following categories: Best Use of Material, Best Social Commentary, Most Original, People’s Choice and Best Overall.

The Blackburn Community Centre hosted its first-ever Spring Fair Saturday and Sunday (April 2 and 3).

Usually, they put on a winter fair but with so much support, a Spring Fair was planned as well for vendors to show off their products. Organizers hope that it will become an annual event.

The PG Roll A Dome was busy on Saturday hosting the annual Small Business Fair where they welcome people from all over Northern BC.

It was a chance for vendors to show off their products and services to the community while also promoting their small businesses.

The dome was filled with over 80+ small businesses and had a massive turnout.
