Rebranded as an experimental bookstore/library, the Victoria Arts Council’s Fort Street storefront presents a continuation of their Shelf Life project for Winter/Spring 2025. This time, ANOTHER SHELF LIFE, refocuses on printed matter and artistbooks in an expansive way, encompassing the entire venue.
Loosely themed from month to month, with rotating titles on offer, VAC’s executive director and curator of the project, Kegan McFadden, assembles interpretations of what makes a book and where printed matter enters the realm of contemporary art, all while presenting a dynamic new way of engaging with the local art scene.
Highlighting local artists/publishers/writers, on view throughout these monthly exhibitions will be limited edition artistbooks, printed matter, ephemera, and [un]related items of interest.
The Victoria Arts Council acknowledges the partnership with The Bay Centre, and funding from CRD Arts, BC Arts Council, and the Province of BC, as well as our Members for their support.
