PAST PROJECTS

Art ce Soir (2010-2012)

An all-night art event organized in collaboration with the Downtown Business Association, Barrie’s Department of Culture and other Barrie businesses, the Lakeshore Mews galleries, studios, and shops organized Art ce Soir II; a late-night contemporary art event in celebration of Culture Days and tribute to the Nuit Blanche phenomena. Running from the early afternoon until early in the morning North Simcoe artists transformed Lakeshore Mews and Fred Grant Square into an engaging place of art, through visual, musical, theatrical and literary installations, interactive activities and peformance. Barrie residents and tourists from beyond were invited to encounter the downtown in a new way and rediscover the city through a series of indoor and outdoor events and site-specific installations. Under the direction of the Art ce Soir curatorial team; Meaghan Armstrong, Jill Price, and Alana Sproule, the intent was to provide an evening of culture, that would bring the art community together to offer the uninitiated and devoted art lovers an accessible and exciting night of contemporary art. It was just one of many opportunities organized to celebrate and showcase Barrie’s growing art community and our city’s commitment to arts and culture.
