I'm currently in the middle of organizing Victoria BC's second annual Aboriginal Underground Art Crawl, slated for the evening of FRIDAY MARCH 13th, 2009 with seven very exciting artists.
Currently, we'll be showing work from:
Sherry Williams
Cara-Lyn Morgan
Courtenay Louie
Daniel McRorie
Lindsay Delaronde
Romy Pritchard
and newest onboard
Ukjese Van Kampen
The follwing spaces/programming has been confirmed with more details unfolding as I'm able to confirm space/participation:
The Fifty Fifty Arts Collective
2516 Douglas Street
http://thefiftyfifty.artvictoria.com/index.php
The Community Arts Council of Greater Victoria (CACGV)
G6 - 1001 Douglas Street (at Fort, in the breezeway)
http://www.cacgv.ca/
MediaNet, a local video and film resource centre will be curating a program of independent video projects to be screened at the CACGV on the crawl night, time TBA
http://www.media-net.bc.ca/
Music program at Ocean Island Backpackers Cafe Bar
791 Pandora Ave

Music program being assembled to wrap up the crawl and unwind, cafe open til midnight, show starts at 9:30pm featuring sets by cellist Cris Derksen. More TBA. Interested musicians, also contact us if you'd like to play - space is intimate, licensed and programming is leaning towards experimental.
A third art space is being confirmed currently, there have been some challenges securing space and confirming participation, keep an eye out for an update on more gallery space. If you are able to offer gallery/cafe/storefront/etc space for this project, please contact me to discuss, we're trying to find a place downtown to facilitate flow/transportation/schedule of events for the crawl night celebration.
Shows at various spaces will be on before and after the crawl night which is when all spaces will be open for food/drinks/mingling. Show dates TBA very soon.
So, the idea being we have several art shows at several locations downtown that will be open the evening of the 13th of March. The screenings and music will be at set times and a program drafted soon with map and carpool information. I'll be leading a bike team to the various venues and we'll also have some drivers to help anyone less mobile.
Confusing? That's because there's so much going on! It's going to be crazy. And excellent. I'll be posting artist bios and images as soon as I'm able to get permission. Keep an eye out for more information and thanks for visiting.
