AKA ARTIST-RUN AND PAVED ARTS TO TEMPORARILY CLOSE TO PUBLIC IN RESPONSE TO COVID-19 PANDEMIC
We are committed to the health and safety of our community. Taking the government advisory into account, and to ensure the health and safety of our staff, artists, patrons, members and volunteers, AKA and PAVED ARTS have decided on the following actions:
1. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and with the recommendations to reduce social gatherings in an effort to curtail the spread, we will exercise abundant caution. As such, we are temporarily closing our Galleries and Production Centre to the public, effective as of Tuesday, March 17, until further notice.
2. All events and programs currently scheduled by the galleries have been postponed until further notice. All activities that were scheduled by third party providers in the event space are reverting back to the organizations and we advise you to confirm their status with the organizers.
3. AKA staff will continue working remotely and in office when required. Staff will be available by email only to answer any questions or concerns you may have.
Our aim is to be preventative and not reactive. We will continue to monitor the situation daily and will provide any new developments as necessary through our website and other communication channels as required.
Thank you so much for your ongoing support and we look forward to welcoming you back when our doors open again.
In the meantime, stay safe and be kind!
Sincerely,
Aka artist run centre and PAVED Arts Staffs & Boards
