Greetings!
Happy March! Our Spring Break camp is on this month and we are so excited to be welcoming campers into our facility for two weeks of fun!
If you haven't already, make sure you take the time to check out our exhibitions before they wrap up. Find out more below!
We have started preparing for our 50th anniversary! If you have a story you want to share about Place des Arts, we'd love to hear it! Look under the "what's new" section for a link to our story collection form. No story is too small! If selected, your story may be featured on our social media or in our upcoming 50th book.
In April, we have so many great events coming to Place des Arts! We're excited that Provincial Health orders are shifting and can't wait to see more of your faces.
Lastly, we have a handful of job opportunities with deadlines coming up fast! If you're interested in working with our fabulous team (I may be biased), see the list of jobs below.
Best wishes for Spring,
Aurora van Roon
Communications Coordinator

We want to hear your stories about Place des Arts for our 50th! |
|
We are currently planning our 2022-2023 season which marks Place des Arts’ 50th anniversary as an arts education centre in Coquitlam. Our history is about the many individuals: students, teachers, artists, performers, board members, donors, volunteers, staff and alumni whose collective experiences and contributions have created and continue to create a home in our arts community. We have so much to celebrate, and we can’t do it without you!
Share your story!
We want to hear from you. Please fill out this form and share a story about your time here. It can be about an inspiring moment, an impactful relationship, or your fondest memory. Do you have a throwback photo that encapsulates your time here? Upload it! We would love to see it. No story is too small. If your story is selected, it may be posted on social media, our website, newsletter or included in our upcoming 50th Anniversary book that will highlight PdA’s history.
It would mean so much to us if you shared your PdA story with us!

A Well-Made Object at the Bill Reid Gallery
on view until May 8, 2022
What is a well-made object? Bill Reid considered more than the quality—he also looked at the shape, the process, the techniques, the history and the innovation inherent in each work.
