PRESIDENT’S PERSPECTIVE

March 2024

Happy Spring!  The days are getting longer, the flowers are blooming, and our member groups are hard at work planning new exhibits and performances for you to enjoy.

In the ACS gallery this month we have Gail Aitchison’s exhibit The Beauty of Nature.  The Gallery is open Tuesday – Sunday, 10am – 3pm.  Join us on March 10^th for the opening reception for this show!

This month we celebrate World Theatre Day and acknowledge all of the prosperity that comes with an active investment in our arts community.  Live performances, whether theatre, music, comedy, or dance bring diverse audiences together and are enjoyed by all – it just makes “cents” to invest in our artists!

If you, like Benji and I, are looking for something to do while waiting patiently for the Easter Bunny to hide eggs, why not enter our colouring contest?  Decorate the image on page 9 and bring it back to us for a chance to win a prize!
