...just your typical week at the CMC!

Early in June, the CMC welcomed the members of its National Board of Directors for its annual spring meetings and AGM. Representatives from across the country coverged on Chalmers House to participate in some lively debate about issues facing the CMC and its stakeholders.


It was not all work for the Board - the soundaXis Festival was taking place at the same time so many of the Directors were able to take in concerts, exhibits and lectures. The CMC contributed to this festival through its exhibit entitled Re:Sounding - Creating a New Space for Canadian Music.



This exhibit, which was launched with a public reception, featured models and drawings of a proposed new facility for the Canadian Music Centre's National Office. A place where new music performers could rehearse and hold concerts, while also providing the CMC with a greater ability to create connections between composers and the larger community through presenting workshops, lectures and other outreach activities.

A huge thank you to Paul Raff (Paul Raff Studios) and Colin Ripley (Colin Ripley Architects) for their brilliant vision of the CMC's future home. Let the fundraising begin!
