Local talent brings communities together.

Deanna Reschke, making her debut at the fall festival, travelled from Moose Jaw to reconnect with her extended family. A candlemaker, brain tumour survivor, and mother, Reschke said being at the festival is especially meaningful after her recovery: “It was extra special to see them after recovery and to spend time with them here at the Fall Festival.” Candle-making has been a healing process for Reschke, especially after taking a year-long break, she said: “It’s something I’ve poured my heart and soul into.”
“North Battleford means home. It's my extended family, it's our network, it's our safe place to land. So it is a very special place for us.”
