Rad Boob Club Ski Calendar AVAILABLE NOW!

GET YOURS TODAY!!!

In Golden, British Columbia, there is a group of girls called the Rad Boob Club. Reacting to the exclusivity of the unofficial Rad Dude Club, these ladies can be found out skiing the best lines in B.C. Recently, this group of skier chicks created the Rad Boob Ski Calendar to raise funds for the Rethink Breast Cancer Foundation. Available for $20 here at MCCC or online, the 12-month photo gallery features athletes such as Ingrid Backstrom, Grete Eliassen, and Lynsey Dyer. And sorry fellas, but there’s no nudity—just ski action and lifestyle shots.

Whistler based freelance writer, skier, and calendar designer, Holly Walker felt privileged to be a part of the project. “I had a stroke last winter, which provided me with a lot of free time on my hands,” Walker says. “I couldn’t think of a better way to spend my time, than to get back into graphic design and help the girls out.”

This winter the girls of the calendar will be touring to different ski resorts to sell their product and pass out information on breast cancer awareness. Check out the website [radboob.com] and find more information on Rethink Breast Cancer awareness foundation [rethinkbreastcancer.com].

Featured Artist: Betsy Barnum

MCCC is pleased to announce that Betsy Barnum has her work up through the Fall.

Betsy is a Seattle based artist, who creates artwork that is not only captivating but also deeply layered and full of life. Her current series contains scenes of flight, growth and portraiture that is subtly infused with pattern and soft tones.


Artist Statement:
I use my works on paper to describe my life, expressing my thoughts and emotions about a specific moment or circumstance through my relationships with those I am close to. I build up thin layers of paint, ink and pencil to conceal and reveal images the way emotions and behavior are unconsciously layered to hide or signal something to others. The gesture and composition of the figures in my work are very important, as they are the first indicators of the work's meaning.



I use recurring objects from piece to piece as symbols or metaphors for people and ideas. For example, I often use a typewriter to represent myself, or birds as metaphors for fear and emotion. I use paper as my surface because of its flexibility, smoothness, and capacity for erasure. Like a palimpsest, it shows the progression and history of layers of marks. Like skin it wrinkles and fights back when worked on, asserting its personality into the painting or drawing. Like journal pages, my work is an ongoing narrative, each piece chronologically linked to the others. Each gesture, color, layer, and object is significant, and each work interacts with the others to establish meaning through a repetition of these elements.







Betsy Barnum has an M.F.A. from the San Francisco Art Institute and is an artist, designer and maker of things. You can't help but love her. Come by and see her work for yourself!
We're open 6:30-6PM Daily!

Featured Artist: Liks

Hailing from The Land Down under...

Liks grew up riding the Melbourne train system "The Met", through the late 80's and early 90's. Seeing the works of such artists as Merda, Duel, Ransom, Zane Bug, Tame and Puzle, Liks quickly became consumed with graffiti, creating an obsession which remains to this day.

One of the first canvases Liks ever worked on was his parents’ shed in his hometown of Melbourne, Australia, when he was a teenager. Believe it or not, his parents didn’t yell or punish him for releasing his cans of spray paint — they encouraged him to express himself and bought him his first book on graffiti - "Spray Can Art".

When he was 19 years old, Liks moved to the beautiful mountain resort of Whistler. He only intended to stay for one season, but his love for the mountains kept him longer. Although embracing the laid-back mountain lifestyle, his passion for street art is undeniable. Combined creativity and strong work ethic have resulted in various successful projects with local businesses, and clients abroad.

When Liks isn't painting or sketching, he is probably snowboarding if there is fresh powder on the hills, or chilling with his girlfriend and dog Moe on the couch. Through the encouragement of friends and family, his passion for graffiti has snowballed over the years. Liks is happiest when he is painting, engrossing himself in graffiti on a daily basis. In the future he hopes to continue to grow and brighten our dull, boring walls everywhere- giving people something to look at and enjoy.
