THISOPENSPACE WELCOMES #PHOTOSHEPHERD 365: AN IMAGE A DAY
From this Friday, February 20th to Sunday the 22nd, thisopenspace's flagship Chinatown location will be host to #PhotoShepherd's 365: An Image A Day. Steven Shepherd is a local photographer who recently completed a project in which he shot a self-portrait every day for an entire year – view the collection here. His exhibition will showcase a curated selection of these pieces.
Steven is one of the awesome photographers on our team (you can view his contributions to our site here). The portraits in his 365 are some of the most creative pieces I've seen, and it is inspiring to see his commitment and passion for the art shine through in his work. Here are a couple more from his 365 to show you what you'll be missing if you don't head out to his gallery!
The exhibit will be taking place at 434 Columbia St. There is a Friday reception from 5 to 11PM, and the gallery will be open on the weekend from 11AM to 9PM. Admission is by donation. There will be snacks and a bar, as well as a draw for a canvas print. You can also chat with Steven if you'd like to purchase any of his prints!

I first came across Fur Trade when iTunes gave away their song "Voyager" as a single of the week. Since then it has become a top for my “I”m going to drive really, really fast now” playlist. The band is a two piece featuring the work of Steve Bays and Parker Bossley. Bays has been busy enough lately, playing in Fur Trade and Mounties as well as making other cameos, and he’s also producing music. Combined with Bossley, the two have created an awesome mix of heart pumping electronic inspired rock. No matter what you’re into you’ll be sure to find something you like while listening to this truly cool band.
Does this artist win your vote for our “Local Band / Musician of the Year?” Let your thoughts be heard, and vote for Fur Trade on our poll here. Voting is open until December 30th, 2014 at 11:59pm, and you can vote once every 24 hours.
