The IKBLC Gallery presents: “Snow, Ice and Gold” an exhibit curated by the Westcoast Calligraphy Society. This exhibit will be on display during the 2010 Winter Olympics (Feb 14th to Feb 28th, 2010). Described as an enthusiastic group of people with a common bond–a love of all things calligraphic, the Westcoast Calligraphy Society shares its members’ knowledge of design, colour, illustration, bookbinding, and paper making with all who are interested in the art of letters. Many of the society’s members teach beginning and more advanced calligraphy throughtout the Lower Mainland.
The purpose of the Gallery @ the Irving K. Barber Learning Centre is to provide a visual programming space to “encourage the important learning that takes place outside formal educational activities.” The Learning Centre welcomes exhibit proposals from individuals, groups and organizations within UBC and from the broader community. If you are interested in exhibiting at the Gallery, proposals can be submitted to Allan Cho, Program Services Librarian, up to 1 year in advance. Please include an itemized list and sample photographs (or a URL to photographs) of the items to be displayed.
