  • Artstarts' COVID Conscious Artist Directory!
    ARTSTARTS COVID CONSCIOUS ARTIST DIRECTORY 2020/21 COVID Conscious Artist Directory 2020/21 ARTSTARTS COVID CONSCIOUS ARTIST DIRECTORY 2020/21 Welcome to ArtStarts’ COVID Conscious Artist Directory! What is it? The ArtStarts COVID Conscious Directory was created in response to the social gathering limitations and overall health restrictions due to the current global climate. Our hope with this directory is to make arts experiences still accessible for students in the province, especially during such a challenging and uncertain time. Here you will find a collection of our Artist on Tour Directory artists who are offering online programming as well as tailored in school performances and workshops that are safer and adhere to the provincial health guidelines. This includes socially distant workshops, smaller performance sizes, and limiting travel to within the region the Artist is based. We will be using this specific directory for schools and districts to book from until the province deems it safe for programming to return to normal. If that happens throughout the 2020- COVID Conscious 2021 school year we will support schools and artists to decide if they want to shift their COVID Conscious booking to the artist listing on the general AOTD. How do I book? Artist Directory 2020/21 If you are interested in booking any of the artists on our COVID Conscious Directory, please email [email protected] with the following information: • Name of artist/group • Your school name • Number of participants and grade range • Preferred dates (if any) We will reach out once we have tentative dates for you. Additional Notes We are encouraging all Artists to self assess if they or any of their group members will be entering schools for risk of COVID-19.

  • Interview with Dan Mangan Carla Bergman and Sylvia Mcfadden Dan Is a Local Vancouver Singer-Songwriter Who Spends Much Time on the Road
    Interview with Dan Mangan Carla Bergman and Sylvia Mcfadden Dan is a local Vancouver singer-songwriter who spends much time on the road. He is soon to release his second album, Nice, Nice, Very Nice. We did this interview via the internets because he was on the road . When Dan Mangan performs he gently takes over the room. Everyone’s voices hush and all attention goes to him. His music resonates out of his whole body, starting from his toes. His songs evoke introspection: leaving you sipping tea and looking out whatever window is nearest. His words are tinged with a universal melancholy. His music is a direct link to the heart, his lyrics a direct link to the mind. Listening to Dan is a whole body experience. “I want to be around people/I want to mention the things that bring out the tears in us” -Ash Babe RAIN: Tell us about yourself, what do you play? DAN: Music, primarily, I was never all that good at sports… though I do enjoy ice hockey. I live in Vancouver and spend most of my time on the road, telling everyone how pleasing it is to live in Vancouver. R: How long have you been playing? D: I played novice B – that’s what you play when you’re 8 years old and not very good at hockey.. In terms of music, I picked up the guitar now and then as a young kid – as they were often leaning against the walls in my home – but I started taking it seriously around 12..
