Arts Revelstoke is unveiling a brand new series aimed at keeping the community’s spirits high by presenting live performance and bringing people together.
REVY.Live is a series of safe, family-friendly events. Multiple live performances will take place at the Revelstoke Performing Arts Centre for small audiences of less than 50 people. Arts Revelstoke will also live stream events on its Facebook and YouTube pages, allowing for a broader audience to enjoy spectacular performances from the comfort of their own home.
“The year 2020 will be remembered for many things. Our goal at Arts Revelstoke is that it is not remembered as a time when the music stopped. As an arts organization we have tried to take this opportunity to be creative, to think outside the box and, most importantly, to keep the community’s spirits high by continuing to present live performance and bring people together safely,” Miriam Manley, Arts Revelstoke artistic and executive director said in a statement.
