Birch Heart: Natural Edge Bowl or Platter by BJ Danylchuk
Birch – Natural Edge Platter or Shallow Bowl
Made from a piece of birch crotch, where one limb branches into two, shared roots
supporting independent evolution/growth.
⇒ Branching shows on the outside as one trunk transforms into two branches.
⇒ Branching shows on the inside with feathery figure as one becomes two.
⇒ Feathery figure becomes visible when the wood is (literally) turned into a platter
or bowl, exposing interior wood.
⇒ When turned into a bowl or platter with a natural edge, sometimes what emerges
is a piece with a shape that looks like a heart, as in this case.
A thing of beauty and contemplation which doubles as a useful object.
This Birch Heart has a food-safe oil finish. The oil is impregnated into the wood and the oil and wood cure together into a finish that enables the piece to defend itself from usual human use. Care instructions are included.
Artisan: BJ Danylchuk, Island WoodTurning, Champneys’ West, NL.
Dimensions: 12” x 11” x 2”

8th Annual Pink Tie Gala
The 8th Annual Pink Tie Gala is our signature fundraising event, and this year’s celebration is particularly meaningful as we mark the 100th anniversary of women gaining the right to vote in Newfoundland. This milestone serves as a reminder of the strong, determined women who came before us and the importance of continuing the fight for gender equality.
The funds raised will enable PerSIStence Theatre to continue producing thought-provoking theatre and initiatives that highlight the stories of women, their leadership, and their contributions to society.
Your participation in the gala will directly impact our ability to bring these stories to life in the 2025/2026 season, where we will focus on inspiring and encouraging women in leadership. By showing up for PerSIStence Theatre, you’re ensuring that we can continue to show up for our community in the most meaningful ways.
We invite you to join us in celebrating this remarkable milestone while supporting a cause that will have lasting benefits for women, our community, and future leaders.
