Your thoughts on the Arts
What the Arts mean in my life/To my company?

The arts have always been part of my life… sometimes a big part, sometimes a small part, but always there. It’s like blood… water… essential to my existence. Whether creating/performing or watching/supporting I derive great joy from all aspects of art. An arts administrator at heart, however, I enjoy the “work” of make the arts viable & economically sustainable.

How am I involved in the arts in the Valley?
We are relatively recent arrivals – 2 years here now – and are starting to get our own legs. Initial contact with the arts here included discovering the wealth of local musical talent, which of course led to helping out at various events. Becoming involved with ETA has allowed for a much broader knowledge of just how deep the pool is here – and now serving as a director with the Comox Valley Arts Council, I’m delighted to be more hands-on with the development, promotion & purveyance of art in all its forms.
