It takes a Village to craft coffee this good

The media installation is a project that blends performance with film screenings and exhibitions. The program, run by Jacob Gleeson, plays with the idea of the tent as a public forum and marketplace. As day turns into night, the walkway will be lit up with projection work by new media artist Vincent van Haaff, using the shapes of the Fresh St. Market Art Market tents as a canvas.

HOME, SHELTER, BELONGING

IN COLLABORATION WITH THE WEST VANCOUVER MUSEUM

Home, Shelter, Belonging focuses on metaphors of home and shelter and the related idea of belonging, whether cultural, social or creative. Participating artists, designers, and photographers from diverse cultural backgrounds examine both historic and contemporary concepts of home, the re-establishment of claims to place following war or colonization and the recreation of a sense of belonging in a country other than one’s homeland. westvancouvermuseum.ca
