It Stirred Me All Up

When Trish Belsham walked into the Audain Art Museum for the first time, she had a vision.

"I was really just amazed by the architecture that had so much flow," she says. "I was inspired to partner the design with dance. When I entered the foyer and saw that beautiful, big window and the mouth of the corridor, I had this visual image of this dancer all in white—like a spirit hovering in the doorway with extended arms."

Wabi-Sabi Love

Just over five years ago, Trish Belsham and her husband were on a hunt to find their next home in B.C. after a stint on a ranch in the interior.

When they visited Pemberton during their quest, Belsham was immediately struck by one observation. “I liked the way the women walked through downtown,” she says.
