A NEW CURATION SERIES
The vision for VIM House is to showcase the incredible diversity and wealth of music in Vancouver, as well as to host performers from around the world; to create a place where musicians and artists from different genres and cultures will meet one another, exchange ideas and experiences and develop new musical collaborations.
The New Curation Series will provide the first exciting glimpse at one of the many facets of the future artistic vision for VIM House. Curated by Cole Schmidt (NoSchMo) in cooperation with Rainbow Robert (Coastal Jazz), this series includes some of the most inspiring members of the jazz and creative music scenes in Vancouver: Tommy Babin, Sick Boss with Debra-Jean Creelman, Braveheart, and Waxwing. The series will open with one of the most genre defying new experimental groups from New York: Battle Trance.

This important curatorial collaboration combines the forces of Cole Schmidt, a community presenter whose work has made a massive contribution to the ecology of jazz presentation in Vancouver; and Rainbow Robert, representing an established not-for-profit presenting organization committed to serving both the local and international creative music communities.
Genuine, respectful collaboration between artists, curators and presenters will be one of the key strategies for creating a unique and dynamic environment at VIM House, a place where music and community will thrive.
