For Immediate Release

The Campfires
February 4-February 26, 2011
Opening Reception: Thursday, February 3, 7-9pm

Artists:
Andrei Bus, Norman Coloma, Martin Krykorka, Marcus Jolly, Roland Meier and Joelle Sept

Six artists will explore the utility and magic of a campfire, recalling the narrative and re-imagining its contemporary brand while contending with a dialogue that mystifies rather than clarifies.  The artists have created diverse works for this exhibition such as carvings, found objects, sculptures, video, photography, paintings and DIY art.

A Circle of Community
Artist Talk: Saturday, February 5, at CityScape 1-3pm

Campfire: Saturday, February 19, 6-9pm. We invite the community to be drawn by the warm glow of a campfire at Ship Builders Square to celebrate the spirit of camaraderie, singing, music, storytelling, food and fun.  Performers will engage the audience in singing round the fire while storytellers share their tales and guests share in the warm glow of the fire.

Philosophers’ Cafe: 7pm Wednesday, February 16 at Lynn Valley Main Library in partnership with Simon Fraser University continuing studies. What is Community?
