Moore: applied for a employment grant grant made it possible to hire . :agallery coordinator, Sherrill Hardy.;and. a. museum curator,: Yvonne Prudek. ‘An invaluable montage of “Deep Cove’s. historical. * heritage has been donated to the fledgling gallery by area historian, Janet Pavlik. The donation fs a compilation of photographs and newspaper clippings chronicling Deep Cove’s humble. beginnings in the early 1920s as a tiny logg- ing community and a regular site for the Royal Vancouver Yacht Club’s annual summer _ regatta. Pavlik’s says her collection was accumulated from pioneer and lifelong Deep Cover residents through her work as area columnist for the late Citizen Newspaper. Her collection reached such proportions that in 1974 to 1975 she produced a series of 10 videos for North Shore .Cable :10 documenting the area's history from 1900 to the present. ‘Sense of community and -roots.in Deep Cove,”’ says © Pavlik, ‘‘is' extraordinary.

Slides of the collection ac- companied with commentary from. Pavlik will be featured at the gallery’s open house, May 8, 7:30 p.m. . Hardy, who has been gallery coordinator since February, says the. limited space allotted the galiery has necessitated a quality over quantity approach to exhibits. ; Adds Moore, ‘‘The gallery will be strongly local in representation with priority and emphasis given to Deep Cove artists and Deep Cove’s rich artistic heritage.”’ An exhibit of watercolors from three Iecal schools, Seycove Secondary, Burrard View Elementary, and Sher- wood Park Elementary, is currently on display until May 10 in the community wing that will soon be Deep Cove's first gallery.
