Big Bay is home to a disproportionate number of makers, musicians, artists, designers, bakers, curators, builders, inventors, and storytellers. “More important than the wares we make, I like to think we’re makers of community and creators of shared experiences,” writes Nicole Egan.
“Whatever it is, here in Big Bay, we have unique perspectives and big personalities, and collectively, we make magic happen.”
In her new local series, ‘The Big Bay Beat,’ Nicole aims to introduce you to the people of Big Bay and the goings on in this neighbouring community.
