We’d like to think this year that the 5th Gathering Festival at RED ended up being a pretty good one for the books, not to mention a good event to help close out the season. After all, how often do you get Ace Kvale dancing in a dress, backflips off the Start Shack over dozens of women in bikinis…
Marko Shapiro’s Photo Workshop runs Tuesday, March 26 to Wednesday, March 27. We’re taking bookings now for the event. Last year, the photos that came out of it were spectacular!
Camera Basics 101 with Marko Shapiro Register here Monday March 25, 2013 6pm – 9pm Calling aspiring photographers
The Gathering is a celebration of mountain culture. Photographers, filmers and athletes from around the world descend on RED Mountain Resort and Rossland, B.C. to tell stories of their journeys in an interactive media presentation.
For the 5th year running, The Gathering, presented by Salomon, will continue to thrill and inspire skiers of all kinds.
The Gathering runs from March 25th – March 31st, culminating with photographic, film and athlete presentations at the local auditorium on March 29th and 30th.
Stick around on Sunday, March 31st to enjoy the annual Slush Cup and Deck Party – this year, the Aggrolites (a ska band from LA) will be getting the party going.
A fun filled week of skiing, parties and friends.
