SPECIAL TO THE NEWS
The Rollin Art Centre has put together some fun ways to remain connected to the art gallery during the COVID-19 pandemic.
We want to continue to stay connected to everyone, so please join us on our Facebook page (Community Arts Council of the Alberni Valley) and see all our great new videos, all by local artists.
We are always looking for other ways to stay connected while being creative. If you have an idea you would like to share, please contact me at admincac@shawcable.com.
LAST CALL
This is your last chance to submit applications to exhibit at the Rollin Art Centre in 2021.
All submissions must be sent via email to admicac@shawcable.com. Don’t miss this opportunity to have your own art exhibit or group exhibit. Application forms are available on our website at www.alberniarts.com. The deadline is April 30
ANNUAL BOOK SALE
The Community Arts Council’s annual giant book sale has been postponed due to the COVID-19, but a new date will be announced in the coming weeks. Stay tuned!
TEAS ON THE TERRACE
The Rollin Art Centre’s summer Teas on the Terrace events are currently being cancelled until further notice, due to COVID-19. We are doing our part by staying safe and keeping our gallery closed to keep social distancing. Please stay tuned for more information when it comes available. Thank you for your continued support.
GALLERY AND EVENTS
In response to the growing concerns surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, and for the safety of our communities, the Rollin Art Centre Gallery will be closed until further notice.
This means that we will be postponing all performances and programs until further notice. While we’re disappointed by this outcome, we recognize how fortunate we are to be able to continue working and planning future events. We’re also grateful to our artists and volunteers for being so willing to take precautions and supporting these difficult decisions.
If you have any questions or concerns about the gallery and programming —or know ways that we could support your families in being creative during this period —please reach out to our Arts Administrator, Melissa Martin, at admincac@shawcable.com.
