It’s in the soil in Langley. While acres of lush farmland paint this city-on-the-river a rich green, there’s an art scene growing here too; a little nourishment for the soul. Step back in time at the galleries around historic Fort Langley, or check out the latest in music and theatre at one of the many annual festivals around town.

Every month, the talented cast of loveable improvisers from across the Lower Mainland takes to the stage at The Bez Arts Hub in Langley for a very fun evening full of comedy improv games, scenes, and surprises.
The Georgia Straight calls Very Very Improv “city-quality comedy talent in the ‘burbs”, and audiences agree. “Very Very Improv is a blast every single time! Each show I’ve attended has been a hoot!” Join the fun! You’ll laugh lots.
Very Very Improv is a new, professional improv theatre company based in the Fraser Valley that has brought together some of the top improv performers from across the lower mainland.
Members of the cast have trained and performed with Vancouver Theatresports, The Panic Squad, Funny Brothers Improv, Tightrope Improv, Trinity Western University, University of the Fraser Valley, Canadian Improv Games and more.

The department of Art + Design is pleased to present an exhibition of new paintings by Art +
Design faculty member Russell Leng. Leng’s exhibition Thru u is on view at the SAMC Gallery
November 20-December 21, 2024.
This highly personal body of work represents a new direction in Leng’s practice over the past
four years as he’s transitioned from abstraction to figuration. It was during the first months of the
pandemic that human figures first began to appear in Leng’s usually abstract paintings.
As one gazes at these paintings figures emerge from the highly textural surfaces– a hand, a
head, a boot, a figure within a figure. These indistinct and abstract figures surface and dissolve,
intertwine and merge speaking to our fundamental interconnectedness. Leng explains that the paintings “explore where we begin and end in relation to one another” and invite the viewer to
contemplate “the significance of the many subtle connections we share.”
Less representations of actual bodies and more symbolic messenger figures, Leng’s abstracted
bodies gesture to a more gentle and supportive way of being together. Amidst the tensions of
global conflict, domestic politics and rising inequality, Leng’s figures offer a vision of
interconnection and interdependence that is a balm to our contemporary sense of alienation.
Of the exhibition, Gallery Coordinator and faculty member, Alysha Creighton says “I’ve been
watching this body of work develop for several years. I’m so excited to be able to present this
soulful and visually rich body of work at the SAMC Gallery.”
Thru u runs from November 20-December 21, 2024 at the SAMC Gallery on Trinity Western
University’s Langley Campus. The exhibition and events are free and open to the public.
