Did you know that there is an International Labyrinth Society, with an informative website and annual meetings?There are quite a few existing labyrinths in the Lower Mainland and on Vancouver Island -- for just a few examples, the St. Paul's Anglican Church painted labyrinth in Vancouver's West End ( a replica of the Chartres Cathedral labyrinth), and a whole tour of labyrinths on the Island.
Did you know that the Bethlehem Centre in Nanaimo houses Bill Godden's collection of Finger Labyrinths -- a finger labyrinth museum? Finger labyrinths can help plan labyrinth designs, and are sometimes used as a way for people (including kids) to calm an anxious mind by 'walking' a labyrinth in miniature with hands.
There are labyrinth designers and historians all around the Lower Mainland, Vancouver Island and around BC.
Here's another excellent resource for those who want to try their hand at designing and building a labyrinth!.
