ROUNDHOUSE VISION & MISSION
In September 1996, the Roundhouse Advisory Committee, composed of neighbourhood representatives, heritage supporters, members of the arts community and Park Board staff, undertook a retreat to work through a vision for the Roundhouse. The following is the result of those discussions: The overall mission is to celebrate diversity... of people, values, ideas and activities. This mission is made up of three key elements:
THE ROUNDHOUSE AS PROJECT
All of us who work or play or socialize at the Roundhouse will be active participants in an evolving Roundhouse Community project to find new and creative ways to integrate the arts, community, culture and sports. Arts & Recreation Centre THE ROUNDHOUSE AS OASIS 181 Roundhouse Mews The Roundhouse is located in the centre of one of the largest urban experiments in history, transVancouver, BC V6Z 2W3 forming a few hundred acres of mostly vacant lots into one of North America’s densest and most Tel: 604-713-1800 diverse urban sites. The Roundhouse will be an oasis in the centre of this dynamic mix, enabling Fax: 604-713-1813 people to use their creativity and energy (at whatever level) to rejuvenate themselves and to be info@roundhouse.ca better equipped to face a blizzard of challenges and opportunities around them. roundhouse.ca

THE ROUNDHOUSE AS CONNECTION
The Roundhouse exists to identify and serve the needs of widely divergent communities. To do this the Roundhouse must reach out to the places and situations where those communities feel comfortable. These relationships will grow into Roundhouse programs through sponsorships, partnerships, and our own productions.

We envision a world where ethnic and cultural diversity is accepted and embraced by everyone. We embody this vision by creating vital Canadian theatre that celebrates difference.

QUEER ARTS FESTIVAL 2020
A Roundhouse partnership with Pride in Art Society Thu Jul 2 – Sun Jul 12 Exhibition Hall | Performance Centre TICKETS $0-40 at www.queerartsfestival.com | Concession pricing, flex passes available INFO www.queerartsfestival.ca | FB/Tw @qafvancouver | Insta @queerarts “Wickedness is a myth invented by good people to account for the curious attractiveness of others.” – Oscar Wilde This past decade has seen the mainstreaming of gay; sexual difference wins approval so long as it is palatable, marketable, and doesn’t stray too far from bourgeois notions of taste and morality. Our 2020 theme Wicked reimagines identity politics, exposing the implications of homonormativity as erasure. Highlights include Johnny Sopotiuk’s visual arts curation; choreographer Noam Gagnon’s raucously vulnerable biographical exploration of madness, This Crazy Show; a decolonized reframing of Annea Lockwood’s rarely performed classic Piano Burning in partnership with Full Circle First Nations Performance; and Leaving Kansas, a community-engaged participatory concert from Jerry Pergolesi and Louise Campbell. Sponsors: Government of Canada, Canada Council for the Arts, Province of British Columbia, BC Arts Council, City of Vancouver, Vancouver Foundation
