Pender Harbour

 

Pender Harbour is the collective name for a cluster of communities that surround one of the best natural harbours on BC's lower coast. It is located northwest of Vancouver, only a 35-minute ferry ride and 1-hour drive from the Lower Mainland. 

 

The community of Pender Harbour is renowned for its physical beauty. It surrounds a body of water which constitutes one of the most protected harbours on BC's west coast. It has soaring mountains and small coves, seabirds on the wing, and abundant plant and animal life. It is an idyllic setting.

 

Our vision is to present musical events within the context of this beautiful setting which will take the listener to a new level of spiritual well being, whether that audience member be a resident of the community or a visitor.

To reach the Pender Harbour Music Society's Performance Centre (or Music School as we locals call it!), take the highway exit which features the restored fish boat and enter the village of Madeira Park.  Follow the road past the Community Hall and watch on the right for the complex containing the Performance Centre, the Art Gallery, the Reading Room and the Child Development Centre.

We are a registered non-profit society governed by a volunteer Board.

 

The Pender Harbour Music Society has three main activities:

January 19, 2012 - Marcus Mosley, Will Saunders, Khari McLelland and accompanist Lonnie DeLisle sang some seriously spiritual gospel in the Pender Harbour School of Music on January 15. The first in the Music Society's Concert Series for 2012 was standing room only. And the Sojourner's power and sincerity of song and spirit transformed the room into the kind of place of worship many attending wished theirs could be: Sacred.

October 16, 2011 -  The Lafayette String Quartet delighted its audience with two Beethoven quartets, and a challenging Stravinsky work on a sunny Sunday afternoon in mid-October. And then, after asking "How do you follow Beethoven?", they proved they could do so by giving us the finale from a Haydn quartet, proving they really are a tour de force on the Canadian music scene.
