ARTCOACH comes to Port McNeill

A hugely successful event resulted after a planning and organizing collaboration between NVIAS and CREATIVE COAST. Called ARTCOACH the event served to create ART AMPLIFICATION opportunities for North Vancouver Island(s) artists. Digital Technology equipment was transported to the the Community Hall along with a team of “techie” professionals from http://www.streamofconsciousness.ca. The artists received hands on training in portrait photography, photography of completed art works, video filming of works in progress, and conducting & filming interviews.

it was a great opportunity for artists to regroup after several years of COVID isolation…
