SUMMARY:PR - The Alley: Artist Card Trading Night - Family Friendly
DESCRIPTION:Last Thursday of the month. \nMake the cards at home\, or make them when you are here- have a pint of Persephone beer or cider and revel in the colours and designs of a rad community of artists. Snap a pic of your collection and tag us in it-we love staring at all the colours!\n\nArtist Trading Cards are self-made unique works or small series\, signed and dated on the reverse by the artist/producer\, exchanged and collected by the people who participate in this collaborative event. There are only 2 “rules”: the cards must be 2.5″x3.5″ (the same as modern hockey cards or baseball cards)\, and they are only to be traded\, not sold.

SUMMARY:Gibsons Public Art Gallery: JIM BREUKELMAN | Sanson's Diner Revisited
DESCRIPTION:to March 8th. Beyond an instant\, very little if anything stays exactly the same. To be able to delve into a still image of a moment\, isolated from all of time\, is like the magic of peering through a microscope at a tiny fragment of the larger world. Jim Breukelman came across and photographed Sanson’s Diner in 1966; a place ordinary from the outside\, but with a vibrant atmosphere inside filled with lively\, open\, and expressive people. Going back over a period of time to talk to\, eat with\, and photograph the people at Sanson’s Diner\, this became Breukelman’s first major project photographing a group of people in order to get to know them and tell a small part of their story. An exhibition in the Main Gallery. \nJoin us for the Opening Reception on Sat.\, Feb. 14th\, 2pm – 4pm. All are welcome!
