West Vancouver, Concerts by the Sea - Catherine Barr

LOCATION, location, location. I can't describe it any better than that. Today marks the third installment in our four-part summer community concert mini-tour and last Sunday evening, West Vancouver was the destination. The "Concerts by the Sea" in Ambleside have become a crowd favourite over the years. Each Sunday night at 7 p.m., you can find local artists, residents and families gathering on the beach behind the Ferry Building Gallery to listen to the music. And when you get an evening like last Sunday, you feel like you've landed in paradise. A big thanks to the gang at the gallery for helping sponsor such a great musical event.
