CreatiValley, the Reach Gallery Museumâs nine-day celebration of local culture, proved that Abbotsford is fertile ground for the arts. Concerts, improv and stand-up, art battles, and panel discussions were among the festivities of the exhibition â one highlight being a 12-hour marathon of exhibitions, events, and performances by UFV fine arts students on Friday, October 2. One of these events was the launch of PIPE
magazine, UFVâs new journal from students in the visual arts department. The Cascade
spoke with Terrill Smith, PIPEâs managing editor and cofounder, to talk about the launch and the future of the magazine.

On a chilly Saturday evening in early January, a quiet little gallery nestled on the bank of Mill Lake in Abbotsford suddenly became not so quiet when it hosted the first installment of 2019’s Fraser Valley Biennale. The biennale has been a recurring event since 2011, and has connected the art being produced in our local community to the broader contemporary art community in Canada. The Kariton Art Gallery is headquarters for the Abbotsford Arts Council (AAC), an organization known for its extensive involvement in local arts and culture. This makes it a fitting starting point for this year’s migrating show.
