Vicki Marcok is the publishing rep on the ELAN (English Language Arts Network) board. She wants to invite everyone to ELAN’s cinq-a-sept for Valentine’s Day – a way for our artistic community to get better acquainted.

It will be held Tuesday, February 13, from 5 to 7 at the Empress Theatre (the old Cinema V at 5560 Sherbrooke West in NDG). Please RSVP ELAN at admin at quebec-elan.org, with Valentine’s Get Together in the subject line, so they will know how many to cater for.

Built in 1927, this beautiful Art Deco landmark is the only Egyptian-themed theatre in Canada, and was once the social hub of the community it graced. For over 12 years, this fine old building has stood empty and forlorn, but a group of committed citizens is working to rebuild and recreate this heritage landmark into a fine and performing arts centre, named the Empress Cultural Centre http://www.empressndg.org

As ELAN members, you are invited to come mix, mingle & schmooze with fellow members and the ELAN Board, and while you’re at it find out what’s happening with the Empress project (mini tours will be given upon request).

Beer, juice & snacks will be served. Feel free to bring anyone who may find ELAN or the Empress of interest, but do RSVP to admin at quebec-elan.org by end of day Sunday with “RSVP” in the subject line to help us prepare.

Looking forward to seeing you there, ELAN Board & Staff
