The Old Barn Community Centre and the University Neighbourhoods Association held a magical evening at the UBC Botanical Garden on August 16, 2011, in which around 140 adults and children attended. Before entering the Amphitheatre, families also took a quick tour of the Physics Garden, where a Botanical Garden volunteer explained the different types of medicinal plants healing powers and myths. Participants were also given a special “potion” which included a mixture of plants and herbs such as lavender, Chrysanthemums, lemongrass and rosemary. Amongst the beautiful setting of the Garden’s Amphitheatre, Ray Medway, a wizard from the land of Hogwarts (based on the successful Harry Potter movies) entertained and delighted the audience with magic and humour. By bringing in
engagement with audience participation, the younger attendees were able to yell out answers to ‘magical’ questions, and interact with the magicians humour. The adults in the audience were just as entertained, and even participated in some of the tricks. Some of the magic shown included card tricks, items appearing and disappearing, and objects combining and splitting. The UNA and The Old Barn have stated that this show at The Botanical Garden was the first of what will hopefully be an annual event, each to be a different theme. Residents of the UNA Community are able to show their UNA CSC card for free entry into the UBC Botanical Garden at any time, and all that is required is to fill out a form at the garden in order to gain access.
