The CVAG Studio (affectionately know at ETA as “The Cellar”) is the basement level of the Comox Valley Art Gallery. This ‘undergound’ venue comes to life with some awesome kids programming from 10 am till 3 and then an evolution into some exciting experimental works with shadow puppets, music and more.
