ROUNDHOUSE VISION & MISSION
In September 1996, the Roundhouse Advisory Committee, composed of neighbourhood represen tatives, 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 project to find new and creative ways to integrate the arts, community, culture and sports.
THE ROUNDHOUSE AS OASIS
The Roundhouse is located in the centre of one of the largest urban experiments in history, trans forming a few hundred acres of mostly vacant lots into one of North America’s densest and most diverse urban sites. The Roundhouse will be an oasis in the centre of this dynamic mix, enabling people to use their creativity and energy (at whatever level) to rejuvenate themselves and to be better equipped to face a blizzard of challenges and opportunities around them.
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, part nerships, and our own productions.
WHERE WE ARE
The Roundhouse is located at the corner of Davie St & Pacific Blvd • The Yaletown-Roundhouse Can ada Line Station is 200 metres from us • Bus routes 6 & C23 stop within steps of the Roundhouse.
GETTING TO THE ROUNDHOUSE
Walking from Granville Street, head east down Davie five blocks • Underground pay parking is available (access off Drake). Mo-Fr 7am-6pm $3.60/hr, no daily max | Mo-Su & holidays 6-10pm
$5.15 flat rate | Sa, Su, & holidays 7am-6pm $3.60/hr, $15.45 max. The underground parking closes at 11pm but shows that run later than 11pm will have access through the Roundhouse.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
There’s something cosy about moving into our Fall season. As leaves change from summer greens to autumn reds and oranges, the rhythm of our daily live starts to move from outdoor to indoor. The kids are in school, playing with old and new friends, warm soups are back on the menu, and the Roundhouse has an exciting slate of programs and events on offer.
For the Littles (toddlers/preschoolers), spark their movement exploration with yoga or acting (try Yoga 4 Fun and Acting 4 Fun p22). We have a full range of activities for children including creative arts and STEAM-powered programs (how about Rhythm Jamm! p27 and Artsy Engineers p24). For adults looking to dance and sweat, try one of our new dance fitness programs (Booty Barre and Brazilian Rhythms p45).
We welcome two new staff to our Roundhouse family: Youth Worker Melissa Gendron and Older Adults Worker Kaleb Corbin. Pre-teens, youth, and older adults can find them in the office two doors down from the Games Room. Please drop in to say hello!
Diana VanderVeen, our Older Adult Worker for many years, has retired to the Sunshine Coast. We’ll miss her high energy, her dedication to her clients, and her passion for yoga, fitness and inclusivity. In true rec centre fashion, we threw an 80s-themed fitness party for her. There may have been a stellar karaoke rendition of Don't Stop Believing
Our Production Manager/Technical Director Annie Cavanagh returned to Australia earlier this year. We were very sad to say good-bye. She has been such a positive influence with our staff, partners and renters. We will miss her enthusiastic support for local arts, her even-tempered approach to challenging situations, and her dedication to the tech team and staff. Notably, Annie slaked her wanderlust by exploring our beautiful province. We wish her all the best in her new adventures.
We are very happy to announce that Jeremy Baxter is taking over the reins from Annie. Jeremy was one of the first to hold this position at the Roundhouse, and has been a key production manager in the local community in those intervening years. Welcome back, Jeremy!
It’s not just those who take the programs we offer who make up our community, but our vol unteers as well. Now that we’re back to full programming and event space use, we have more opportunities for volunteering. Contact Silvia Rubino silvia.rubino@vancouver.ca to see what we have coming up.
Simma Bakare President, Roundhouse Community Arts and Recreation Society25TH ANNIVERSARY
The Roundhouse opened its doors in 1997, which means that this year we celebrate our 25th year serving our Yaletown and Vancouver community. Coming off the heels of the pandemic, we chose a quieter celebratory approach – have you spotted the banners on the sides of our building? They’re hard to miss! Perhaps you’re sporting one of our limited run of buttons. These visuals are our small way of saying we’re proud to be a community hub for our Yaletown neighbours as well as for Vancouverites, and a draw for national and international visitors. We invite you all to the facility, whether it be for a quick break, a show, a game, or any of the many programs we provide. Welcome!

GALLERIES RESIDENCIES
WHAT IS A ROUNDHOUSE ARTIST IN RESIDENCE?
Participate in a free Artists’ Residency and collaborate with professional artists on projects that build creative community. The Artists in Residence program is an important part of our commitment to community cultural development: promoting diversity, interdisciplinary activ ity, innovation, collaboration and involvement. This is your opportunity to create original theatre, dance, music, and visual art with some of Vancouver’s most renowned artists.
VISUAL ARTS
Nehiyaw (Cree) Métis visual artist Adele ᒪᐢᑿᓱᐏᐢᑵᐤ Arseneau has worked hard to regather, practice, and foster traditional skills… and she wants to share. Her Plant a Seed Bead Residency offers a unique opportunity to learn beading directly from the artist and, in turn, to share this knowledge with your own circle.
After receiving a package with beading materials by mail, you will meet online with the artist one-on-one. With her guidance, you will create a beaded patch, as she shares her stories and invites you to share yours. In exchange for this lesson and connection, each participant pledges to share the skill and conversation with two others who also receive materials packets by mail. They each share with two more, supported by additional materials. How long can we keep this skillsharing project going? How far might this teaching travel?
Adele ᒪᐢᑿᓱᐏᐢᑵᐤ embarks upon this project with a firm belief that we are all simultaneously teachers and learners, and that we can choose to honour and cultivate these roles in our own lives. Due to the intimate nature of this residency, space is very limited. To read more or to enter for the chance to participate, visit roundhouse.ca/programs/artists-residencies/plant-a-seed
DANCE
Community-engaged dance residencies at Vancouver Park Board facilities bring together people of all ages, abilities, and cultural backgrounds to explore, create, and perform dance with profes sional dance artists. This fall, we welcome back the Roundhouse Ageless Dancers, Roundhouse Community Dancers, as well as residencies for both youth and adults through All Bodies Dance Project. See pages 34, 44, 53.
MAKE ART IN OUR PARKS
Visit over 50 artists making art in Vancouver Park Board’s Fieldhouse Studios – transformed former care-takers’ suites in parks or underused facilities across Vancouver into active spaces for community engaged creative practices. In each cycle artist collectives, food, greening and environmental groups are given free access to these spaces in exchange for engaging neighbours, colleagues and curious visitors in imaginative, collaborative work. These inspiring projects lead communities into deeper conversations about living in the urban environment.

003_playback by Caroline MacCaull (Chimerik 似不像) is centered around technology, looping and real-time manipulation, 003_playback is a participatory, movement exploration presented through a web-coded, live-streaming platform. Throughout the work, audience members vote to decide the sound, lighting and how the movement will be altered each round. Performers respond to these real-time choices via visual playback. Drawing from video games and simulation theory, this interactive piece explores the many potential timelines we constantly navigate between and how each decision can have a ripple effect, constantly shifting the current reality. Framed as per formance-as-research, 003_playback, investigates how surveillance, control, and agency, actively play with our human experience.
