What does an artist in residence do, exactly? Find out during an upcoming exhibition at the Anvil Centre’s Community Art Space.
AiR: Works by Anvil Centre Artists in Residence runs from Feb. 5 to March 30. An opening reception is set for Thursday, Feb. 8 from 5 to 7 p.m.
It features work by artists who took part in the inaugural artist in residence program at Anvil Centre in 2017. The residency program gives artists and artist collectives a chance to work out of the Anvil Centre for an eight-week period to research, develop and produce a new (or ongoing) work. In exchange, artists hold an outreach program for the community during their residency.
Stop in to the new exhibition to check out work by Chelsea Comeau, Sam Davidson, Sandeep Johal, Lois Klassen, Dawn Livera, Jennifer Pielak, Andrea Taylor, Margery Theroux, Elisa Yon and Teodora Zamfirescu.
See www.anvilcentre.com for details, or stop in to the gallery (on the third floor at 777 Columbia St.) to check out the work.
