Fuelling Diversity in the Arts: VS. Creative Lab
Donation protected
The VS. Creative Lab is a Vancouver-based community hub that cultivates diversity in the arts.
Our studio concept is inspired by the remarkable legacy of Oliver Dimapilis, an amazing brother and a dear friend to many who championed inclusion and embraced diversity in all art forms. His spirit fuels our determination to create a space that houses artistic expression and becomes a home for diverse voices, stories and talents.
Whether you're an artist, a supporter, or simply someone who believes in the transformative power of creativity, there's a place for you at VS. Creative Lab.
But the canvas is not complete! The VS. Creative Lab needs your support to bring this vision to life. Our space is where untold stories find their voice, ideas come to life, and every bit of creativity contributes to elevating this diverse community.
Why We Need Your Support:
- Renovations: Transforming our space into a dynamic, state-of-the-art hub for creativity includes renovating our studios, upgrading infrastructure for accessibility, and creating versatile spaces for collaboration and learning.
- Equipment: Providing the tools and resources essential for artists to bring their visions to life. This includes state-of-the-art cameras, lighting equipment, editing software, and sound equipment to ensure that artists have access to the best tools to create their masterpieces.
- Programming: Help us kickstart engaging and enriching programs that ignite the creative spirit for multiple art forms. From workshops and masterclasses to artist residencies and community events, your support will help us offer diverse programming that fosters creativity and collaboration. Your contribution will also subsidize programs to ensure accessibility for individuals from all backgrounds and abilities.
Your Contribution Matters:
By contributing to our fundraising campaign, you're not just helping create a physical space. You're cultivating an environment where everyone - regardless of background or identity - can thrive.
