SUMMARY:Luminosity Gallery Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the IMA Public Gallery between 11 AM and 6 PM from July 8th – 15th (Closed Monday and Tuesday) to participate in this unique multimedia exhibition\, and again at 5:30 PM on July 15th for the culminating showcase. \nIn Luminosity\, the artworks of visual artist Linda Dayan Frimer and video artist Isaac Forsland are showcased together\, exploring the interaction between painted pieces and projections. Together\, the works unveil the artists’ vivid hues and abstract elements\, highlighting the role creativity has in the relationship between humanity and nature.\nDuring the run of the exhibition\, the public is invited to participate in the creative process of ‘Direct Animation’\, contributing their own drawings\, impressions\, and linework onto a clear strip of film as they explore the gallery. \nOver the course of the exhibition\, this community-made artwork will evolve\, culminating in a late afternoon tea + talk that will feature a book reading of Luminous with Frimer\, followed by a film screening to conclude the exhibition. \nLINDA DAYAN FRIMER:\nBorn and raised in the forests of the Wells-Barkerville area\, Frimer finds inspiration in local surroundings\, particularly trees\, transcending the confines of the natural world and giving rise to dynamic\, lively forests. Her newest book\, Luminous: An Artist’s Story as a Guide to Radical Creativity\, posits that as the artists of our own stories\, we actively cultivate our imagination and our experiences of colour and form. Through knowledge of past artists\, who were able to see more in the darkness of their times while visualizing the future\, Frimer encourages us to be inspired to bring something new\, creative and unifying into existence. \nISAAC FORSLAND:\nForsland explores the creative process itself\, with a strong emphasis on the time and effort invested behind the scenes of film production. While recognizing the importance of the final result\, the focus in this show primarily rests on understanding the intricate journey of bringing a piece of film to life. \nIMA acknowledges the support of the Canada Council for the Arts and the Province of British Columbia\, as well as the Wells-Barkerville Community Forest\, for keeping our gallery free to attend.\nIMA acknowledges the ancestral territories of the Secwépemc and Dakelh Nations\, on which Luminosity will be presented\, recognizing their historical and ongoing connection to the land.

SUMMARY:Sawney's Legacy
DESCRIPTION:Sawney’s Legacy tells the story of James Anderson\, the first published poet of note in British Columbia. \nThis play is written and performed by Brendan Bailey with Direction by Dirk Van Stralen. It was developed in part through The Sunset Theatre’s annual Exploration Series\, and will be presented once a month this summer on June 30th\, July 14th and August 25th. \nAbout the Poet: James Anderson was the first published poet of note in British Columbia. His Sawney’s Letters and Cariboo Rhymes has been of tremendous historical relevance and is quoted regularly in publications regarding the Cariboo Gold Rush. Born in 1835\, raised and educated in Scotland at the prestigious Dollar Academy\, and one of fifteen children\, he became lord for the Anderson family estate. While resident along Williams Creek during the Cariboo Gold Rush\, he was involved as an owner\, investor\, and labourer in a number of mining pursuits\, but was also heavily involved in many community and social endeavours and was notably respected and well-liked\, particularly for his legal aptitude\, commentative verse\, and singing voice. \nCONTENT WARNING: Sawney’s Legacy is a period piece and explores privileged views of the nineteenth century Caucasian society\, as well as addressing adult themes around family trauma and bias. \nSawney’s Legacy runs approximately 60 minutes in length. \nPlaywright/Researcher/Performer: Brendan Bailey \nProduction Manager/Stage Manager/Lighting Design: Emily Lindstrom \nDirector and Poster Design: Dirk Van Stralen \nResearch and Historical Consultant: Richard Thomas Wright \nIndigenous Consultants: Cheryl Chapman and Mike Retasket \nChinese Consultant: Dr. Ying-Ying Chen \nTheology Consultants: David and Michelle Lieffertz \nCariboo Lodge #4 Consultant: Neil Vant \nNoble Players Logo (design\, image\, and intellectual property): Caitlin Bailey \nCover and Poster Image: Emily Lindstrom \nCostume Advisors and Wardrobe Support: Michelle Lieffertz and Patti Bailey \nHISTORICAL NOTES: The historic dates and events are (or are as close of an educated assumption to) documented\, sourced\, and cited fact. In writing this play\, the playwright has worked within the given historical circumstances and drawn from historic publications to breathe life to fact. \nNoble Players Theatrics is a Canadian production company focused on sharing stories connected to our historic gold rushes. Noble refers to the properties of gold which we feel serve as an effective metaphor for artistic integrity and entertainment value. \nContact: nobleplayerstheatrics@gmail.com

SUMMARY:Gallery Opening: Face-To-Face
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Opening tomorrow May 26th @ 7:00 pm- 9:00 pm \nTwo deeply distinct series of portraits that demand a double-take. Troy Lindstrom and Samantha Wigglesworth’s joint exhibition opens at 7:00 PM – have some snacks and beverages with us\, and hear a bit from the two artists. ⁠ \nIn Face-to-face\, the work of Northern BC Artists Troy Lindstrom and Samantha Wigglesworth are exhibited together\, exploring the fine lines of first impressions and preconceived notions. \nAnyone can walk through this show and assume each person’s gender and sexuality based on the representation of the portraits. The question is\, would you be right in your assumptions and the labels you assign to them? How would you know? \nID: From left to right:\nTroy Lindstrom\, #NotSoulless\, Digital illustration\, 2021\nSamantha Wigglesworth\, AMBIGUOUS\, Acrylic on canvas with 3D elements\, 24 x 36 in\, 2021\nFace-To-Face\nTroy Lindstrom\nSamantha Wigglesworth

SUMMARY:no art to see here: Exhibition Opening
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, April 20th\, 2023 – Sunday May 21st\, 2023\nExhibition Opening: April 20th at 7:00 PM \nGallery Hours: 11:00 AM – 6:00 PM\nThursday – Sunday\, or by appointment \n“Art fills the cracks of meaning that tangible things leave behind.”\nAs a child\, Amanda Preston’s sketchbook went everywhere with her. Where words weren’t appropriate\, art was. Conversations between the adults around her became colours\, and her means of connection were often her drawings: her way of quietly saying “I see you.”\nWhere colour palate bonds her work together\, the pieces explore disconnect to others and to self\, as well as the expectations of being: Being alive\, being oneself\, being surrounded by one another\, being alone in a world that is both kind and unkind. \nThough words convey a lot of meaning\, language is limited and meaning is steadily diminished through ambitionless buzz-words that can’t always articulate one’s feelings. As one might reach for metaphors and similes to be the grout that secures honest feeling\, Preston reaches for art to fill to secure those same misplaced pieces\, providing a connection to those leftover bits of emotion that too often go unspoken. \nThe title of the show\, “no art to see here” can be read as a nod to Lady Macbeth’s “there’s no art to find the mind’s construction in the face.” In other words\, no one can determine what another is thinking by looking at their appearance or the expression on such a person’s face.\nIn a very similar way\, you can be told to receive or not to receive art in a specific\, curated process but true connection or understanding will filter through our own individual perception. No one person can predetermine another’s connection or lack thereof.

SUMMARY:Joseph Shea live at the Wells Hotel
DESCRIPTION:Joseph Shea is a multi-instrumental singer and writer of songs. As a member of the Prince George collective The Ebbs (https://theebbs.bandcamp.com) and the Alberta/BC collaboration Trundled (https://trundledmusic.bandcamp.com)\, he’s played music from coast to coast\, and from cave bottoms to mountain tops. \nWith songs grounded in traditional Irish/Americana structures\, Joseph works in themes of love\, loss\, and life. As a solo performer with just a guitar and a piano\, his sound is a product of simply being a bit of a shoe-gazing Canadian kid in the 90s (think Wilco\, Radiohead\, Jeff Buckley\, Josh Ritter\, and Brandi Carlile)

SUMMARY:Community Meeting on the Future of the ArtsWells Festival
DESCRIPTION:We know that many of you are waiting to hear whether or not Island Mountain Arts (IMA) will bring ArtsWells back in the summer of 2023.Based on the results of the 2022 Community Feedback Survey and the IMA Board’s goals and vision\, we are planning a smaller version of the Festival\, to be presented in 2023 or 2024. We will announce the next Festival dates soon.\n\n\nOur goals are to present a Festival that includes the best parts of ArtsWells and eliminates\, to the best of our ability\, the elements that strained our community.\n\n\n· We hope you will read the Community Feedback Survey Results Summary: https://drive.google.com/…/1hRvjxi6YBnnd1lH1WVDTG…/view\n· IMA Board and Committees will continue to develop the Festival and other plans\, seek funding\, and collaborate with our partners for the future.\n· We encourage our neighbours to join us for a Community Meeting on February 8th at 7:00 PM in the Island Mountain Arts Public Gallery (2323 Pooley St.) where we will present our roadmap for the 2023 season and beyond. We look forward to hosting this conversation. (we unfortunately do not have the infrastructure to host this meeting in-person and online at this time.)\n\n\nIf you’re interested in volunteering with us to bring a future Festival or other programming to life\, please consider joining us on February 8th or contact volunteer@imarts.com for more details.\n\n\nBackground:\n\n\nFor many years\, Island Mountain Arts ran a summer festival in Wells called ArtsWells Festival Of All Things Art. Artists\, musicians\, and attendees came from near and far to celebrate what Wells had to offer.\n\n\nThe festival has not happened in person since the beginning of the covid pandemic. In its final years\, it had successfully grown so large that it began to put serious strain on the broader community and its infrastructure.
