Have you ever been to a little cool place called 221A Artist Run Centre? If you haven't you should go. This Saturday, Jan 23, 7pm, 221A is having a show called the Pact 3: Even.
221A Artist Run Centre (formerly, NOART Vancouver Artist Collective) started in 2005 by students at Emily Carr Institute who had a desire for a participatory space to share ideas, work, and resources. The major function of the organization at this time was to hold a monthly one-night exhibition at Emily Carr Institute called the ‘Pact’, best described as a sporadic art/thinking/creating/sharing event fueled by copius amounts of food, music, and local publications. In 2007, the organization became a legal non-profit incorporation and established a diverse group of dedicated individuals excited to contribute to its purpose.
Other Notables: Michael Lin is at the VAG, Make it Strange at the Malaspina Printmakers Gallery and the opening of the new extension of the Museum of Anthropology is having a three day celebration. Please see Artsy!Dartsy! for details on more opening receptions.
