SUMMARY:LIVE ELECTRONIC MUSIC SHOWCASE
DESCRIPTION:A Family Friendly Afternoon Concert + Dance Party \nYou might be asking… what is “Live Electronic Music”? Well\, simply put\, it is electronic music that is performed live. In other words\, the performers are not DJing; rather\, they utilize a variety of electronic instruments (e.g. synthesizers\, sequencers\, computers\, electronic violins\, vocal processors\, theremins\, loopers\, etc.) and weave sonic-worlds in real-time\, one layer at a time. \nThis showcase will take you on an epic journey into the world of live electronic music. It’ll start right at 3:20pm with a 10 minute talk giving an overview of live electronic music. Following this\, each of the 4 acts (who produce music in completely different genres of music) will do two things. They will: 1) give a 10 minute talk discussing their creative and technical processes\, so that attendees have a much deeper insight into how they think about\, feel into\, and perform their music\, and 2) follow that talk with a 40 minute performance. \nThe artists are: \ntpwtr (glitchy lo-fi funk)\nthisissami (improvised beats & freestyle rap)\nNella Banner (ethereal downtempo & ambient)\nJaq Taforo + Aurelien Sudan (improvised electronic-jazz fusion) \nFood will be available courtesy of Nelson-based Mexican chef Erika Cuevas. She will be serving burritos and soup\, with vegetarian and gluten free options available. \nSound will be provided by Live Harmonics from the Slocan Valley\, who will be setting up a PK sound system. \nDoors open at 3:00pm. Show starts at 3:20pm.

SUMMARY:‘PULP’ exhibition opening
DESCRIPTION:PULP is the latest iteration in a series of medium-centric group exhibitions\, focused on a common theme – in this case\, paper – that highlights each artist’s interpretation of the medium. PULP opens Friday\, April 5 at the Nelson Museum\, Archives & Gallery\, and runs through July 27.\n\nIn the hands of artists from across Canada\, the artworks that embody PULP speak to personal\, regional\, socio-political\, and historic symbology; seen in the feminist forms of Gathie Falk and Badanna Zack\, with an Indigenous perspective through the work of Edward Poitras\, through the revolt and response of Mia Feuer\, the masks of Miya Turnbull\, and the poetic/historical approach of Susan Andrews Grace.

SUMMARY:Mini Sculptural Vases with Becky
DESCRIPTION:Our instructor Becky is a student at Glasgow school of the arts in Scotland. She has years of experience moulding\, casting and working with clay. She is excited to share her knowledge with you! \nIn this fun introductory session into hand building clay\, guided by Becky\, you’ll get to create your very own mini sculptural vase. \nVases will be fired with white or clear glaze\, and participants will be notified via email once their pieces are ready. Wait period is usually 8 weeks. \nCost is $55 and includes materials. \nWhat is handbuilding? \nHandbuilding is a ceramics technique that allows you to create forms with clay and your hands\, without using a throwing wheel. Before ceramicists invented the wheel\, handbuilding was the only way they could create functional and artistic ceramic forms. There are 3 main handbuilding pottery techniques of pinching\, coiling\, and slab rolling. All you need to get started are your clay\, your hands\, and a few simple tools. \nWhile handbuilding is as simple as using your hands to form an object out of clay\, it encompasses three main techniques and forming methods. Once you have mastered pinching\, coiling\, and slab building\, you can make just about anything out of clay. \nPre registration is required.
