On March 1, 2020 we opened our Arts & Environment Learning & Resource Centre.  On March 12 we had to close the space to the public because of the Covid-19 Virus.
This global epidemic has been very difficult. It has forced changes to every facet of our lives and work.
Granting agencies switched funding models to an emergency status: providing funds for health, safety and food security. Waste management and community development were not a priority. 
Many not for profit organizations and charities have had a particularly hard time managing, and many have had to close their doors. We are determined not to do this if there is any way we can keep going but it is hard.
We are now organizing our transition to resume our original goals as an arts and environnment learning and resource centre, and to adapt both the space and the programming to do so safely. 
Watch for announcements. We have some interesting things in the works!
