The life and work of Quadra Island artist Richard Calver is the focus of a new documentary to be screened at the Campbell River Art Gallery Saturday, February 28 at 1 pm.

The public is invited to view the 40 minute film, meet Richard Calver and view a selection of his work.  Light refreshments will be served. The documentary, Richard Calver: A Life in Print, created by Ken Blackburn of the Campbell River Arts Council and Marjorie Greaves of Shaw TV, will give viewers a glimpse into Calver’s creative process and inspiration. Calver met renowned artist Sybil Andrews in Campbell River and soon started creating his own linocut works. Inspired by Andrews, he learned the intensive process of creating linocut prints. He carries on the legacy of Sybil Andrews and the calibre of his work is remarkable.

Mark your calendars for Saturday, February 28 from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. to view Richard Calver: A Life in Print and meet the artist himself. Admission is by donation.
