Don¹t give up hope!
Despite recent setbacks, the Yarmouth Arts Regional Council has not given up
hope for the construction of a new Arts Centre at 76 Parade Street and will
continue to do everything possible to convince Yarmouth Town Council to
change their course and not throw away the chance to see a multi-million
dollar facility built in the near future. Click here now to see our recent advertorial placed in the Tuesday, October 20th
Yarmouth Vanguard.
A State-of-the-Art, Multi-disciplinary Arts
Centre

(click to enlarge)
As the result of a Feasibility Study conducted in 2005, the Yarmouth Arts Regional Council announced in
March 2006 that plans were to commence for the construction of a new Arts
Centre to serve the region. Although Th'YARC has served the community well as it celebrates its 30th year of operation, the time has come for replacement in the form of a state-of-the-art, multi-disciplinary facility.
The plans for the new facility include the following features:
For Performing Arts
- Modern theatre with 450-500 seats
- Studio theatre with capacity for 150 seats (suitable for concerts /
films / one-act presentations / cabaret / etc.)
- Dance Studio / Rehearsal Hall / Multi-purpose meeting room
- Full kitchen
- Multiple, large dressing rooms and Green room
- Large Set Shop and Set Storage
- Full Costume Studio & Storage
- Rehearsal rooms (sound proof)
For Visual Arts
- Art Gallery with: Flexible mounting system for wall-hung exhibits, display
lighting, wall-recessed display cabinets, proper climate control and more
- Art Studio / Craft Studio / Print Shop / Multi-Purpose visual arts space
These are just a sample of features that have been envisioned with the
creation of this much-needed new centre. Check back regularly as we provide
new details and progress in the "Latest News" section below.
