Summer Sundays are in full swing at Burnaby's Civic Square. Every year, the city hosts free cultural performances, activities and crafts for kids in the square. The featured act on July 7 was Grupo America, a Latin dance group based in Burnaby.
Sundays aren't the only day for fun in the square. Parents can drop by with their children from Tuesday to Saturday, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. for scavenger hunts, crafts, kite races and more. Starting in August, the city will screen free outdoor films, from 8:30 to 10 p.m., so bring a blanket and enjoy the show. Titles include Hotel Transylvania (Aug. 8), Love is Sin (Aug. 15), Lorax (Aug. 22) and ET (Aug. 29).
Civic Square is just outside the Bob Prittie Metrotown library branch, at 6100 Willingdon Ave.
