When summer winds down, when temperatures fall and the distinct smell of autumn infuses the air, we at the Huss Project find ourselves in a time of reflection. Summer is our busiest time of the year, and this past summer was our busiest yet! We kicked off the season by screwing together a cadre of picnic…

We as human beings are inherently creative entities. We create through imagination. Imagination is at the heart of play; play is at the heart of learning and learning is best with friends. The Huss Project is a space for freely imagining possibilities, creative collaboration, and celebration of the dreams and stories that we all have to…
(Ominous music) Dum… Duh duh dum… Duh duh dum… The anticipation rises as July 19 and the 2014 Huss Future Festival inch closer. After a week of hard work with our new friends from Palmerston, we are now putting the final touches on Huss in preparation for a day of art, food and play. Whether…
It’s that time of year again. Garage sales are in bloom, folks are out walking the streets, looking for hot deals, and Future Festival is fast approaching.
