"Inspired by MISSA: Celebrating the Magic"

May 20 - 31, 2015

Inspired by MISSA: Celebrating the Magic

In 1984 a group of dedicated artists formed the Metchosin International Summer School of the Arts (MISSA). Since then, MISSA has continued to foster the arts in British Columbia by bringing together acclaimed practicing artists to share their knowledge and inspire serious students and professionals to explore and develop their artistic fields in a multi-disciplinary milieu.

To celebrate thirty magical MISSA summers and raise funds for this important regional arts education charity, former students and teachers who have been inspired by their experiences at MISSA are invited to submit original works in a variety of media.

Works in 2 and 3-dimensions in any medium, as well as poetry and music will be accepted for this show. Each artist is limited to 4 entries, and 2/3D works must be less than 36” in any dimension. Please contact the Coast Collective’s Gallery Coordinator, Carolyn Mohr gallery@coastcollective.ca to discuss any special requests or unique requirements.

Meet the Artists at the Opening Reception: Saturday, May 23, 2-4pm.
