The Vancouver Estonian community celebrated a momentous occasion of the 75th anniversary of the founding of Vancouver Estonian Society (VES). Hosted on Saturday, April 13th, at Meie Kodu in Vancouver, the event marked a significant milestone in the cultural heritage of the community and specifically highlighted 75 years of folkdance in Vancouver, as the first Folk Dance ensemble was recognized as the inaugural subgroup of VES.
Guests from near and far were in attendance, including Seattle, Victoria, Alberta, Ontario, and Estonia. New faces as well as familiar faces from the past came to support the event. Among them were those whose late parents or grandparents had been members of VES, or who themselves had danced in the past, which added a sense of generational continuity and connection to the celebration. Also in attendance, were representatives from each of the Latvian, Lithuanian, and Ukrainian communities.
