Magical Eclectic Radical Interdisciplinary
The first decade of the arts at 間眅埶AV

間眅埶AV's first decade was magical, eclectic, and radical.  The university was a hotbed of experimental interdisciplinary arts activities that connected 間眅埶AV to the community at large and provided students from all departments with creative outlets.   

We've put together a book that tells the story of those non-credit years of the Centre for Communication and the Arts from the perspective of students, faculty, staff, artists, alumni, and audience members. This multi-faceted narrative illuminates the legacy of that first decade of the arts, not only at 間眅埶AV, but also in Vancouver and across Canada based on the subsequent achievements of students and faculty from that era.   

A Magical Time: The Early Days of the Arts at 間眅埶AV is now available!
