A heartfelt THANK YOU to everyone who made this fall season of The Performance Series at Arts Revelstoke an absolute success! We’re immensely grateful for the fantastic support and enthusiasm from our incredible community.
Our closing weekend was nothing short of amazing! Welcoming back “Lucas Myers: The Revelstoke Project” was an absolute delight, sharing laughter and insights into our town’s quirks and charms. Additionally, a special shoutout to everyone who joined us for the sold-out screening of “People Like Us” – your overwhelming response and presence truly made the evening spectacular!
With your generous support, we’ve raised over $4,500 towards Open Mountain’s winter programs for youth and QTBIPOC skiers and snowboarders.
This past season, we welcomed many performers and artists to the stage at the Revelstoke Performing Arts Centre. We started the season with Hey Viola!, welcomed renowned world musicians in Classical Connections and a live soundtrack performance from the film Le Chemin Des Juifs: A Suvivor’s Journey. We had many theatre rentals this fall, including Rocky Mountain High – Celebrating the Music of John Denver and international dance company Mascall Dance presenting The Impossible Has Already Happened.
November brought us Casting Off from Australia, Jessica McMann Trio performing Prairie Dusk, Fusion Ensemble, and Chuck Copenace: Global Grooves.
Your continued support means the world to us! Stay tuned for more exciting events and performances coming your way.
