SUMMARY:“My Art is Activism” - In conversation with Sid Chow Tan
DESCRIPTION:Island Mountain Arts is honoured to be hosting video documentarian\, community organizer\, and media producer Sid Chow Tan – along with a team of researchers/artists – in a residency through the beginning of August. Join us for a conversation on August 7th in the Island Mountain Arts Gallery as we delve into Sid’s prolific career\, inspired activism\, and community-centric approach to organizing and effecting change.\n\nSID CHOW TAN 周明輝 is perhaps best known for his anti-racism work\, community organizing\, and community-based media productions. Most significant is his highlighting the injustices of 62-years of racist Chinese head tax and exclusion legislation and its ongoing generational impacts. Working actively as a producer\, videographer\, teacher\, and organizer since 1986\, he is a founding director and member of the Community Media Education Society (https://www.vcn.bc.ca/cmes/1pages/about.htm)\, Head Tax Families Society of Canada (http://www.headtaxfamilies.ca/)\, and past President of Full Figure Theatre Company Society dba Full Figure Media and ACCESS Community Television (Facebook @ACCESSCOMMUNITYTV). Semi-retired\, he continues to reside in Vancouver’s Chinatown (100 block East Hastings) on the unceded and traditional territories of the Coast Salish peoples – sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish)\, səl̓ílwətaʔɬ (Tsleil-Waututh)\, and xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) nations.\n\nHere is a photo of Sid Chow Tan with his heroes\, the late Charlie Quan and Gim Wong.\n(From left to right: Sid Chow Tan\, Charlie S. N. Quan\, and Gim Foon Wong.)\nPhoto by Eric Chan\n\nLocation: Island Mountain Arts Public Gallery (2323 Pooley St.)\n\nLight refreshments will be served!

SUMMARY:Exhibit Opening Reception: Fire Season
DESCRIPTION:Island Mountain Arts is thrilled to unveil our final exhibition of our Summer Public Gallery series\, FIRE SEASON.\n\n\nCurated by Vancouver based artists Amory Abbott and Liz Toohey-Wiese\, this exhibition features the work of: Amory Abbott\, Ana Diab\, Kerri Flannigan\, Eli Hirtle\, Kay Penney\, Andreas Rutkauskas\, Liz Toohey-Wiese\, and Emily Wilson.\n\n\n“In cities\, wildfires are often a remote concept marked by smoky skies and heat warnings. Among small communities in the interior of BC\, wildfire is an annual threat that pervades the lives\, livelihood\, and economy of those communities. Where in urban centers\, an exhibition like this might be encouraging further empathy and understanding for the other regions of our province\, hosting this exhibition in Wells allows us to share the work of our contributors with a community that has experienced wildfire in manifest forms\, in a region deeply connected to forests and their management.” – Amory Abbott\, co-curator\, Fire Season\n\n\nAmory Abbott and Liz Toohey-Wiese are visual artists who have explored the topic of wildfires in their art practice. In 2019\, they began discussing the idea of creating an artist book that would center around the topic of wildfires\, and invite contributing artists\, writers\, researchers\, and community members who had been impacted by wildfire to contribute their insights on how to make sense of the increased prevalence and severity of wildfire on the BC landscape. The first issue of Fire Season was published in Fall 2020\, and the second issue will be released in August at the inaugural “Fire Season” art exhibition at Island Mountain Arts.\n\n\nFire Season’s opening reception will take place on August 25th at 6:00 PM.\n\n\nDates open: Thursday\, August 25th\, 2022 – Sunday. October 23rd\, 2022\nGallery Hours: Wednesday – Sunday\, 11:00 AM – 6:00 PM\n\n\nThanks to generous support from the Canada Council for the Arts and the Province of British Columbia Community Gaming Grant\, the Public Gallery is free to visit\, with donations graciously accepted.
