What is the Community of Heart? An opportunity for the community to take responsibility for developing our youth into balanced, inspired and energized leaders of tomorrow.   We are working to develop and expand a Community of parents, businesses and individuals who contribute a sustainable monthly donation which will be used to create low priced and free Educo opportunities for young people. Our first goal is 500 people giving monthly support! How Will The Funds Be Used?? 3 Ways: 1. Educo will offer many more full and partial scholarships to young people. 2. To reduce our prices.  Though we offer much more than most site based summer camps, we could charge the same amount which requires assistance. 3. Lastly, the money will be used how you would like us to use it!  As a part of the Community of Heart, you will be informed how we are spending the money and you will have the ability to offer ideas, vote on new program directions and give feedback on development.

Eyelevel was founded in 1974, when Inventions Gallery—initiated in 1972 by a group of women artists—opened its membership to be inclusive. From its inception, Eyelevel offered an alternative to the practices of established art institutions. Its support of varied cultural activities led to the formation of two Halifax artist-run organizations—Live Art Dance and the Centre For Art Tapes. Eyelevel was instrumental in the formation of the Association of Artist-Run Centres from the Atlantic (AARCA), and Halifax Ink. In 1986, Eyelevel moved to the North End, where it continues to operate. Eyelevel Gallery recently dedicated its program to offsite projects. Our new office will remain an active hub for our membership and the public, providing access to Joe Osborne Memorial Gallery, The Inventions Library & Archives, and Eyelevel Bookstore.
