A little Blim for the holidays!

Blim Art Facility is a community-based art resource centre which facilitates screen-printing, button making, drawing, knitting, local experimental audio, film screenings, animation, video, dance, spoken word, visual art, creative workshops, and crafts in the independent field. Blim is conveniently located in the heart of Vancouver's DIY art spaces on Main Street.

They believe in presenting art that is not quite embraced by the music world or gallery context, but deserves a platform for expression. Blim has received coverage in the local entertainment arts guide and was voted "Best Low Profile Event Space" in Vancouver Magazine, as well as "Best Innovative Arts Space" in the Terminal City.

For more information, contact Blim at 604-872-8180 or blimblim@telus.net
