Topdown Bottomup

#Swarm13 @TopdownBottomU1
It’s a gallery, it’s a tiny theatre, it’s a music venue! This tiny, one room, CoOp run platform for local talent has determination in it’s name and respectable talent to keep your eye on. I attended my 2^nd show recently that included a variety of mixed media artworks by 4 or 5 UBC graduates. This show was part of an underground art crawl called #SWARM13.
Discovery:
Passing by one day I noticed the ad board out front. It really caught my eye. We don’t have anything else like this locally so it’s pretty exciting.
I went that early summer evening for a contemporary art show that included a feminist monologue along with an unusual, interactive tee shirt exchange. Really hard to describe in that it was very ‘outside the box’ I’m SO glad I went, even though I didn’t know what to expect and I was amazed by the talent. This art and theater venue has SO much potential, I can’t wait to go back for another show or event there. Even maybe help out or facilitate an event myself!
Keep small theater alive, follow them on
to keep up with the events.
