_ Arts symposium creates good impression

VISION to Victory is becoming a very popular annual event.
Last weekend. the North Shore Arts Commission hosted the
second anual arts symposium at North Van's Lucas Centre.
The day-long event was packed full of lectures, displays and net-
working opportunities for local North Shore artists. Cratters,
musicians, and dancers alike benefitted greatly from the advice
of experienced guest speakers. A motivational morning, break-
fast was served, as was a “yetting-to-know-you™ lunch, and the
day wrapped up with a fun wine and cheese reception. Hard to
believe all of this was free for registered attendees.
