The Bleeding Heart Art Space is in BETA mode. We are looking for BETA testers to help us experience what the Space may bring to our community and our city, before the doors open. Bleeding Heart BETAs are nights that somehow reflect the vision, values and manifesto of the Bleeding Heart Art Space.
Over the next few months we’ll be hosting events in the city dubbed as Bleeding Heart BETA’s, covering a broad range of arts from a various perspectives. We hope you’ll join us for some (or all!) of these upcoming experiments in what an ART / SACRED / COMMUNITY space might look like.
Here are some highlights so far;
February 19: Conversation on Chris Millar’s AGA exhibit The Untimely Transmogrification of the Problem. At The Carrot | get details.
March: Director’s conversation on Harvey at Concordia University College.
June: NEW EYES: Bridge Songs 2012
We are also putting together a night of short film, and a chance to create in community. Stay tuned.
If you have any ideas for a Bleeding Heart BETA night – let us know at info@iloveartists.ca

Happy New Year! Now that we’ve all had a few days off, how have you been using your time? Have you hit the theatres over Christmas? Maybe you’ve experienced a magical candlelight service or choral concert? Have you been breaking in that new boxing-day-blowout HDTV? Are you well into that new book or bombarded by the choices on your new Kindle? It seems many friends have been gifted with media this season, as well as the time to enjoy it. I’m no different. So let’s take a moment to share our experiences.

Happy holidays, again. It’s the Christmas home stretch and you’d have to stay indoors to avoid the Christmas media blitz. Somehow though, this close to the day, I like it. I’m soaking it in – pure nostalgia. How about you?

Happy holidays. It’s officially the season of total Christmas (or is it holiday) media saturation. No less than 2 Edmonton radio stations are playing only Christmas music, all the time. Do you love it? Do you hate it? Are you engaging with it or avoiding it? Let us know in this week’s Media Monday.

Alberta Ave’s entry in to Winter Light, Deep Freeze Fest, is a heart-warming good time every year. Even last year’s record snowfall didn’t deter many visitors from making winter merriment. The festival features music, tons of winter activities, live theatre and of coarse and art and artisans gallery. The Gallery is seeking submissions now. This is a great opportunity to get to know other artists from the city and especially The Ave, while promoting and selling your work.
The deadline for submissions is December 16, and you can get all of the details online right here >> http://artsontheave.org/festivals/deep-freeze/call-for-artists-artisans/
