SUMMARY:ArtsConnect: Artist-Run Suburbs
DESCRIPTION:On Saturday 23 May 2026 from 1:00 to 5:00pm\, ArtsConnect will bring together artists of all disciplines and creative professionals of all stripes from across the Tri-Cities for Artist-Run Suburbs. \nOver the course of the afternoon at Evergreen Arts\, participants will explore just what a city might look like with the arts and artists at the centre of its social\, cultural and economic life. What kinds of institutions might artists create together in the present and future upon the foundation of artist-run culture of the past (and present)? How might artists and the artist’s initiative assert themselves within existing cultural infrastructures? Is it primarily funded and managed by municipal governments or agencies? What systems of support exist\, or may be made to exist\, to encourage and sustain artist-initiated activities? What kinds of economic systems can be imagined and built with solidarity as a core value and practical objective? What can be done to foster a greater awareness of\, and skills for\, the power and the possibilities of cooperation and cooperative creative enterprise? \nIn addressing these and many more related and relevant questions\, Coquitlam artist and arts administrator Geraldine Yaris will coordinate the co-leadership of Artist-Run Suburbs with artist\, designer\, illustrator and educator\, Carson Ting\, artist-run centre administrator and Artistic Director of Centre A\, Diane Hau Yu Wong\, artist\, educator and cultural organizer\, Flavia Chan\, and Director at The Black Arts Centre\, Hafiz Akinlusi. \nAdmission is free. Refreshments will be available. For more information please contact info@artsconnect.ing. \nArtsConnect gratefully acknowledges the support of the Spirit of Coquitlam Grant Program\, the City of Port Moody\, the Village of Anmore\, and our valued Members.
