The Early Years | Editor’s Choice
As we reflect on ZOOM's 14 years of capturing the Sunshine Coast’s artistic talent, the magazine's creator Edmund Arceo, looks back on some of his favourite photographic images from the early years.
Jan Jensen
Jan Jensen's evocative abstract expressionist painting is a delight. Her restrained use of colour gives a spacious feel to these images as if a breeze could blow through each layer.
And The BLues Play On
Pender Harbour's annual Blues Festival is coming! June 7, 8, and 9 will bring delighted audiences and performers to our beautiful area of lakes, coves, and forests.
The Music Makers
Lynne and Reg Dickson, lifelong performers, songwriters, and partners, have been making music with and for our community for over 50 years. They continue to show us all how it is done.
The Harbour Gallery
Harbour Gallery responds to the rhythms of our small community. In off-peak times the gallery provides studio space for guest artisans, solo and group shows, as well as workshops.
Nature’s Healing Power
Today, more than ever, people want to know what they can do to keep healthy. Over 2000 years ago the well-known Greek physician Hippocrates advised us, “Nature itself is the best physician.”
Have Paddle, Will Travel
With spring’s kinder weather upon us, we turn our thoughts from staying cozy (and dry!) indoors to enjoying the outdoors once again. On the Sunshine Coast, that includes getting out on the water!
Sweet to Savoury
Love ingredients that can move from sweet to savoury with ease? The simplicity of the rice grain has filled our bellies for thousands of years.
ZOOM, ZOOM!
Sunshine Coast residents pack copies of their favourite local magazine to take great souvenir photos of their trips and share with us snapshots of their adventures.
