of unveiling its new, state-of-the-art creative campus, a flagship for Western Canada. WORLD-CLASS FACILITIES The new campus in Vancouver goes beyond building physical infrastructure. This is an investment in the future of BC's creative industries and leadership. LCI Education's institutions have been built on the belief that they will be the place where tomorrow's creative directors, CEOs and the founders of new innovative brands come to study and learn to launch their careers. The groundbreaking facility in Vancouver is designed to inspire creativity, foster community and set a new standard for education in the arts. When a student has the tools to discover their craft, the mentorship to succeed and an environment to truly inspire them to unleash their passions, they become free to pursue the most meaningful expression of their creativity. This purpose- built, 108,000-square-foot creative campus has been master-planned as a playground where aspiring designers, musicians, chefs, artists and filmmakers can explore all the incredible ways they can bring their ideas to life. LASALLE COLLEGE VANCOUVER CAMPUS The Vancouver building will conform to Fitwel wellness standards and Rick Hansen accessibility standards, and it is LEED Gold certified. Eighty-five percent of the building is bathed in natural light, and it offers ample indoor-outdoor spaces for students to find inspiration or unwind. With amenities like a rooftop meditation garden where culinary students can grow their own herbs, and a showstopping suspended theatre that serves as a dynamic centrepiece floating above the main entrance, the school is a perfect destination to host events, conferences and festivals. The soundstage, impressive media studios and design ateliers will play host not only to lectures but also workshops, masterclasses and panel discussions open to the whole creative community. "This is a place for worlds to collide and community to come together," says Global Director of Content & Partnerships, Maximillion Semchuk. "We're creating space for creative leaders from fashion, music and all realms of design, for Michelin star-awarded chefs, for artists and for our students, alumni and Vancouver's passionate creative community to come together and redefine what creative education feels like. "This is an open invitation for anyone with that creative spark to come and discover what LaSalle College Vancouver's new campus could be for them. Whether you're coming to study design and get your degree or dropping by at sunset to hear one of our alumni perform a rooftop DJ set, we want this to feel like your home, too."
