Families with young children in Port Alberni, British Columbia, can participate in a pop-up play event on March 27, 2026. The Nuu-chah-nulth Health Department is hosting the gathering at the Nucii Gym to help parents and caregivers connect through interactive activities.

The event focuses on providing a space where young children can play while adults build support networks. Organizers aim to improve community wellness by giving local families a structured place to interact with one another in a friendly environment.

The Nucii Gym is located at 4841 Redford St. and is operated by the Uchucklesaht Tribe Government. This facility serves as a multi-purpose hub for both community programs and administrative services in the heart of the city.

This play day is part of a broader commitment to community development in the Alberni Valley. The initiative reflects ongoing efforts to use local facilities for family wellness and support programs throughout the region.
