held an Open House on December 4th to show off it's (finally) renovated building and collect donations for .
The day's activities had something for everyone from starting as early as 5:30am!
The biggest attractions were the news room/tv-studio tours and the live performances both broadcast on radio and in-studio shows. Anyone could take a walk through the building, speak with staff, reporters and on-air personalities along the way.
(Ann Luu taking me how to work the green screen. Its harder than it looks!)
Radio 3 had a set up in Studio 1 in the basement of the building with performances and guests including Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³»favourites & , Nardwaur and Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³»'s own Bob Kronbauer!
(If you missed these performances in person or on the radio, don't fret, Radio 3 should have them up online soon!)
By the end of the day, thousands of people wandered the halls of the new CBC Building and personally, I think (who were on Radio 3 at 7pm) summed it up best via twitter:
