Magical 鈥� Eclectic 鈥� Radical 鈥� Interdisciplinary
The first decade of the arts at SFU
SFU's first decade was magical, eclectic, and radical. The university was a hotbed of experimental interdisciplinary arts activities that connected 51社区黑料to the community at large and provided students from all departments with creative outlets.
We've put together a book that tells the story of those non-credit years of the Centre for Communication and the Arts from the perspective of students, faculty, staff, artists, alumni, and audience members. This multi-faceted narrative illuminates the legacy of that first decade of the arts, not only at SFU, but also in Vancouver and across Canada based on the subsequent achievements of students and faculty from that era.
A Magical Time: The Early Days of the Arts at 51社区黑料 is now in production with Harbour Publishing, and will be available this spring, in time for the opening of the Gibson Art Museum and SFU's 60th Anniversary, both in 2025. Watch this site for further information about how to obtain your copy!
