Groove Noir is a photography exhibition exploring live music on Salt Spring Island in 2025 and 2026. Set in small, intimate venues, the work captures the close relationship between performer and audience, where subtle gestures, expressions, and moments of reflection can be seen and felt. Inspired by the atmosphere of Film Noir, the exhibition uses shadow and limited light as part of the composition. Musicians emerge from darkness, briefly suspended in moments of concentration, quiet satisfaction, and presence. Rather than documenting the full room, Groove Noir focuses on what often remains after a performance: a look, a hand on an instrument, a feeling shared between artist and audience. Together, these images reflect the emotional intensity of Salt Spring’s music scene and the familiar,

Music Makers Presents: All Saints ‘After Dark’ featuring C.R. Avery and very special guest poets and musicians from both on and off island — June 11th — Music begins at 7:30pm (Doors open at 7pm) Tickets – $15-30 Sliding Scale (cash only at the door) In any other case, it would take a team of people to do C. R. Avery’s career or even conceptualize his 17-album catalogue, let alone gain his beautifully twisted, wonderfully dirtied world view. From what dimension he pulls his ideas, we’ll never know. He’s a regular guest of writers festivals, sexy poetry slams, badass burlesque dances, punk piano bars, and if there ever was, is, or would be such a thing as a rap opera festival, he’d surely be the guest of honour with his six rap operas which have been staged from LA to New York.

United by a focus on process and material, driven by the challenges of the ephemeral, mysterious, precarious and elusive, four Saltspring-based artists come together in Stratum, an exhibition of two-dimensional works. Stratum is layers, depth, building up and excavating down. It is smooth and textured wax, opaque and translucent, charcoal set down thick as velvet, graphite lines that shine like silver, excavations and eruptions in plaster, subtle but surprising landscapes that are structure, and gauzelike curtains over worlds that disappear and reappear. Matchett, González Mascaró, Crawford, and Bolliger make work that highlights the tension between surface and depth, structure and chaos, comfort and unease. The artists will be present in the gallery from noon to 1 pm on June 22nd to 25

Talk presented by SS Forum featuring Adam Olsen on Indigenous rights and law (DRIPA - Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act).

Crown-Indigenous relations in British Columbia have been badly strained since the BC Supreme Court found, last August, that the Cowichan Nation holds Aboriginal title to a portion of land in Richmond. Some politicians and pundits seized on the Court decision to argue that private property was at risk. But is private property really at risk? What do the legislation and court judgments actually say? Why have these matters become so politicized? Adam Olsen is perfectly positioned to answer these and other questions. When Adam steps up to speak, he brings more than political experience – he carries age-old stories shaped by land, law and leadership. A proud member of the Tsartlip First Nation and former MLA for Saanich North and the Islands, Adam has spent years at the intersection of Indigen
