A Cultural Centre opening in Yarker

A group of Yarker artists formed a cultural association, which will be providing an access to art and culture for Yarker and area inhabitants. The Out in the Sticks Cultural Centre, run by Out in the Sticks Cultural Association, opens on Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010 at 2838 County Road 6. Before the front part of the building, designed for future Art Gallery, is renovated, the activities run by the the association will take place in private space of members - Anna and Andrzej's family home, so please use the side entrance. The first event will be a film screening, first of the Film Discussion Club series. European film "Underground" by Emir Kusturica will be shown. This movie has gained great fame and appreciation in Europe and has been honoured with several awards, including Palme d'Or at Cannes Film Festival. The screening will be preceded by a short lecture and followed by a discussion. Admission is free, but if you wish to make a voluntary donation for the association you are most welcome to do so.
