Vancouver, BC—(September 24, 2013) - CreativeMornings/Vancouver is pleased to announce a new cultural partnership with SFU Woodward’s.
"We’re thrilled with this partnership with SFU Woodward’s," says organizer and host Mark Busse. "It is a wonderful opportunity for CreativeMornings to become a part of SFU’s terrific arts and culture programming and take community-building to a whole new level."
Starting on October 4th, CreativeMornings events will be held in the beautiful Djavad Mowafaghian World Art Centre in SFU’s Goldcorp Centre for the Arts at 149 West Hastings Street.
"One of the most appealing aspect of Creative Mornings is that they are about art, design and meaningful multi- platform communication. This partnership is mutually beneficial in permitting a new home base for CreativeMornings while offering SFU Woodward’s a vital window into new talents in the fields of design, interactivity, and related creative practices," says Michael Boucher, Director of Cultural Development & Programming for SFU Woodward’s. "Certainly from our side to be able to access this local creative and entrepreneurial think tank will permit many benefits to us that can better support our cultural and community network of over forty partners."
SFU Woodward’s is home to some of Vancouver’s finest cultural spaces and a major supporter of Vancouver’s artistic community. CreativeMornings joins an impressive lineup of cultural events, community talks, dance performances, and festivals such as Fringe and the Vancouver International Film Festival.
