Storify: Edmonton Resilience Festival launches at Green Drinks

Last night (Feb. 4), Yellowhead Brewery was packed with attendees for February’s Green Drinks, which doubled as the launch party for the inaugural Edmonton Resilience Festival (happening Feb. 7 & 8 at Boyle Street Plaza). Attendees played resilience bingo, shared their definitions of resilience at the banner-making table and the photo booth, and talked so loudly and enthusiastically that my ears are ringing slightly this morning.
