“CULTURAL HARMONY" is
the theme of West Vancouver's
first arts festival, being planned
for Aug, 12-18.

By Evelyn Jacob
News Reporter

Festival organizers are inviting
artists of varying racial
backgrounds to perform and ex-
hibit their work in West Van-
couver’s beaches, parks, streets
and art studios in an effort to
promote cultural harmony on the
North Shore,

‘“*For example, an African
drummer might explain his craft
while an artist may talk about the
cultural influences in his or her
painting,”’ says project manager
Colleen Reed.

Reed says a number of local
performers such as the Galiano

Trio, Lance Harrison and his Dix-
feland Band and African drummer
Dido Morris (who is apparently
bringing 75 different drums for
kids to try out) have been signed
up to play at the week-long event.

Another aim of the festival, ac-
cording t Reed, is to promote
ties between West Vancouver's art
and business communities. Fifteen
restaurants have agreed to provide
live entertainment on various
evenings throughout the week.

Ambleside and Dundarave mer-
chants are volunteering their store
fronts for a walking art tour,
modelled after North Vancouver's
First Night Art Walk.

Called Art Beat, the curated
tour, open to both emerging and
established North Shore artists, is
being organized by Ferry Building
Gallery curator, Susan Aoki.

West Van plans art festival

studias is also being organized,
and a special juried exhibit, open
to all North Shore artists, will be
on display at the Ferry Building.
Entry deadline is July 13.

Reed says dance was not in-
cluded in the festival program
because West Vancouver lacks the
proper facilities. *‘There isn’t one
stage that’s good enough, which is
areal shame."’

So far, West Vancouver District
has contributed $13,000 to the
festival, and Reed says festival
staff must now raise $20,000 from
the private and corporate sectors.

Music ‘91, the provincial gov-
ernment’s tourism initiative, is
providing a line-up of amateur
B.C, talent.

If successful, Reed says Har-
mony could become an annual
event.
