The Quail’s Nest Arts Centre is owned and operated by the Oliver Community Arts Council and rented to members exclusively for arts-and-culture related purposes. We cannot sublet for any ongoing business purpose, although our member businesses are welcome to use the facility for occasional events and meetings, just like any other arts council member. We reserve the right to decline bookings that do not meet our arts mandate for building use. Just ask us!
The smaller Studio Building is great for meetings, workshops, and art classes. The larger Big Blue Building is leased to SOAP Theatre exclusively through to June 2023 and is not available for any other use. No sublet or rental arrangement through the lessee is permitted.
The Studio Building is used for our own programming and is also rented to OCAC members. It has two large bays with insulated overhead doors, controllable gas heating units, small wash-up kitchen, larger kitchen with appliances and dining ware, accessible washroom facilities, tables, chairs, large utility sinks and counters, peg boards. Other properties such as plinths and AV equipment can be made available by special arrangement. We accept rentals for single-use special events, weekend use, weekly / monthly activities and our “Summer Studio Weeks”.
