About this audio guide

This guide to the Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity in Banff, Alberta follows the textile artist Mariette Rousseau-Vermette, who took charge of the building's weaving studio in nineteen seventy-nine and tore up its rulebook. You will hear about the visiting artists who flew in from New York and beyond, and about the decade of work that followed inside Glyde Hall. It is a story about what art-making without a syllabus actually looked like, six weeks at a time.
