ART DAY
Spend an hour at PoMoArts (formerly known as the Port Moody Arts Centre, 2425 St. Johns St.) to soak in the new exhibits installed last week. Paperscapes is a group show by Dorothy Doherty, Ellen Pelto, Jane McDougall and Olga Campbell. And the two solo displays are by this year’s Kwi Am Choi scholarship recipients: Dion Smith-Dokkie has his Iris Atoll series, while Connor MacKinnon is showing A Fragmented History: Port Moody. Meanwhile, at Port Coquitlam’s Leigh Square (next to city hall) is Imaginings IV: A Collection of Riverside Student Artwork that includes a First Nations mosaic based on Kurtis Johnson’s digital image of the Coquitlam River.
