CHLY produces local civic and community news from our broadcast community and beyond. We serve Nanaimo and the Salish Sea region, reporting on the news in Nanaimo, Lantzville, Ladysmith, Gabriola Island, Denman Island, Hornby Island, the Oceanside region, and the Comox Valley. We can also be heard in Sechelt and the Southern Sunshine Coast.
An overlooked yet pivotal feature of the coastal landscape has inspired a new public art project, and the community is invited to take part. Encrustation: Barnacles of Belonging is a new participatory exhibit from Twyla Exner, inspired by the sharp seaside staple.
Forest Flowers by local artists Eliza Gardiner and Isaiah Kingdon, part of Nanaimo’s Temporary Public Art Program, has been unveiled. The new sculpture is located at Kinette Evergreen Park on Ninth Street.
