West Coast Creative Salon
August 11
Braid Studios
3rd Floor, 321 6th St

We are delighted to have West Coast Creative Salon in the Studio again this month.  Come and share your art or art that inspires you! @westcoastcreativessalon meetups are informal discussions. Some creatives bring works in-progress (of any kind or degree of completion) to share and discuss. Sometimes people bring pre-existing works that have had a significant impact on them.

WCCS are a diverse and multidisciplinary artistic community in British Columbia’s lower mainland. They’d love to see your work at the next West Coast Creative’s Salon!

This month’s first presenter is Miya, who is going to speak about architecture that inspires her. She says: “Architecture is an unavoidable art and science that surrounds us in daily life. Join us as we explore architecture from all over the world as a source of inspiration within our artistic practices and admire the elements found within, contemplating how to incorporate them into our own works.”
