This year, Alberni Art Rave partnered with the AV Museum to produce the 2022 Emergence Art Show. It came about as a post-Covid “Emergence" of work and ideas from artists across Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands.. 

With the show's September 3rd closing date looming, Alberni Art Rave's thoughts go to the future. There’s a fresh creative force in the Alberni Valley. 

Art Rave has recently partnered with the Community Arts Council and Community Futures to co-host a special event we’re calling “Next Gen Arts”. 

It’s designed to welcome new people into our creative community, to celebrate the accomplishments of local artists and to start a new conversation about the direction of the local arts sector.We would like to invite you to join us on Wednesday, August 31st from 7-9PM for a short burst evening of live local music with Brian Bentley, local food and a series of unexpected activities facilitated by Theresa Kingston. The events are designed to open minds and initiate dialogue about the state of the arts in our valley.All arts disciplines are invited – visual, musical, performing, and more. And supporters of the creative spirit of all ages are also welcome!

This event is free of charge and no ticket is necessary.

We sincerely hope you’ll join us!
