OPEN ARCHIVE LAUNCH

Last night was the launch of Open Archive a temporary arts space curated by Jared Davis & Helen Grogan on site at the Schoolhouse Studios. It was a great night with a wonderful turn out, and the lead up during the day was equally as lovely with everyone pitching in to get the place set up.
Every day spent in this little utopia in Abbotsford is a lucky day.
