The award-winning British comedian performs live in concert in his biggest ever show with a full lineup of top international talent at the Kingsbrae International Residence for the Arts (KIRA) Amphitheatre.
Mullinger is bringing together some of the biggest and best acts in the world to give New Brunswick a night to remember. In 2019, James’ show was the most prominent outdoor comedy show in Atlantic Canadian history and sold out very quickly. Despite being Mullinger’s biggest ever show, it will likely sell out again, so please book now! Doors to the event open at 6 pm. Licensed bar and light food will be available for purchase. Arrive earlier to enjoy a meal at Savour In The Garden at Kingsbrae Garden.
* Please note, that the order confirmation email is your entrance to the show. No refunds, thank you for your understanding.

Learn the basics of free motion embroidery or thread painting using your regular zigzag sewing machine. Lower the feed dogs and use your needle like a paint brush to create flowers, leaves, trees, weeds, ripples in water, etc. You can spend the entire day perfecting your stitches or start a small landscape. Information on design will also be discussed.
Kathy Tidswell combines painting on fabric with free motion machine embroidery to produce thread painted works of art. She also blends innovative and traditional techniques to create unique wall quilts and original wearable art. Nature is a large influence on her work and she strives for realism. Her pieces have been juried into Canadian Quilters’ Association National Juried Shows (winning two awards), Grand National Juried Exhibitions, Studio Art Quilt Associates regional shows and Ontario Network of Needleworkers Threadworks. Her work has been published nationally and internationally. Kathy teaches her methods throughout Canada and in Europe. In 2005, she was awarded Canadian Quilters’ Association Teacher of the Year.
