The Pavilion is a long-term, interdisciplinary project, founded by Holly Ward in 2019 for her yearlong Artist-In Residence project at Langara College, Vancouver. This project performed as a creative catalyst for artistic collaboration, experimentation and pedagogy.
In 2011, on the invitation from Jane Irwin and Ross Hill, the Pavilion was moved to its current location in Heffley Creek BC, otherwise known as Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc, the traditional, unceded territory of the Secwépemc peoples.
Since then, artist Kevin Schmidt has joined the Pavilion, and extensive efforts have been made to transform this temporary, urban artist project into a long-term, land-based artist facility.
2021 marks the 10th anniversary of this
independent, land-based iteration of
the Pavilion!!
Ward and Schmidt are happy to announce that they have finally reached their goal of completing major infrastructural work on this facility, and thanks to the continued support of Irwin and Hill, as well as countless friends and colleagues over the years who have pitched in their talents, labour, and emotional support for this endeavour… you know who you are,
and we will love you forever!
