HOURS OF OPERATION

ROUNDHOUSE VISION & MISSION

In September of 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 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, transforming 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, partnerships, and our own productions.

Mon - Fri 9 am-10 pm Sat & Sun 9 am-5 pm Our front office is closed 30 minutes prior to building closure. WHERE WE ARE THE ROUNDHOUSE The Roundhouse is located at the corner of Davie & Paciﬁc • The Yaletown-Roundhouse Canada Line Station is 100 feet from us, and Buses C21 & C23 stop within feet of the Roundhouse. • IS CLOSED ON MAR 29

MESSAGES

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE I have taken on the mantle of president at a difficult time, as the Park Board is looking to replace the current and long-standing Joint Operating Agreement with the Roundhouse Association. We support the goal of making all community centres more equitable and accessible, especially for lowincome members of our community, and we are striving to ensure that a new agreement will not negatively affect the operation of the Roundhouse. I invite each person who is involved with the Roundhouse to become educated about the issue.You are our community and we are your centre. We will be looking for new people to join our Board and that is just one of the many ways that you can contribute to the Roundhouse. This is shaping up to be an exciting season. Be sure to check out the Bricks 4 Kidz program that will involve kids building projects using LEGO. We have expanded Gardening/Horticulture to include four great new programs. We will also offer some exciting workshops for parents this spring. Hullabaloo: BC's Youth Spoken Word Festival, a Roundhouse partnership, as well as the free exhibit Speaking from our Art will showcase youth art. Be a part of The World Umbrella Dance event at the Vancouver Art Gallery by coming to the rehearsal at the Roundhouse in April. Then come out in May to see the 126th anniversary celebration of the arrival of Engine 374 to Vancouver. We will be hosting our 4th annual Vancouver Draw Down in June and Picnic in the Park in August. There is a lot see and do at the Roundhouse! The Roundhouse Community Arts and Recreation Centre is proud to have been recognized as the best community centre in Vancouver for three years in a row. Thank you to all our staff, volunteers, and members for getting us there, and we look forward to making it four years in 2013. Craig Giles President, Roundhouse Community Arts and Recreation Association

VOLUNTEERS/ VOLUNTEER AT THE ROUNDHOUSE CRAFT FAIR Volunteers at the Roundhouse are an essential part of our thriving community. Without the endless

hours of volunteer service oﬀered to the Roundhouse by our community members, we would not be able to do the wonderful work that we do. Volunteers contribute to our programs, special events, board and committees, and to various environmental and cultural events. Currently, over 150 volunteers continue to give their time and commitment to the Roundhouse, and these volunteers are as varied as the programs we oﬀer. From Engine 374 to pottery studio volunteers, volunteers play an active role at the Roundhouse, and we truly could not do the work we do without their support.
