IMPORTANT - Arc Cafe Closure Posted: Sat Apr 28, 2007 1:43 pm Open letter from Arc management about closure Dear Friends, Musicians, and supporters of Arc, It has fallen to me to transmit some bad news, that Arc Cafe is no more. Staff arrived to work today, April 26th, to find the cafe closed and under receivership. No one working at Arc has been under any illusions as to its' precarious state, but we were led to believe that the place was being sold, and that it would continue to operate both as a cafe and a venue. This has turned out not to be the case and we are all in shock about it. For musicians and bands who have booked shows in the near future, I offer my apologies for this unwelcome hassle, but also, I would like to offer my assistance to find you alternative places to play. There are quite a few other operative venues in Dunedin, and the chances of them absorbing these gigs is fairly high, if we act quickly. Please do not hesitate to ask me to make enquiries on your behalf. I will continue to work from this email address, and the Arc myspace page, so please drop me a line. Many of you will have my cellphone number, but please ask for it if you need to talk direct. Again my sincerest apologies. I guess Arc has had a good run; more than 10 years supporting live, creative, underground music, and the arts in general. Arc was conceived with the highest of ideals, and it's tough to think of many other venues of similar ilk, anywhere, that've stuck it out as long. It's sad to see it go in this manner. Thanks to all of you for bringing your creativity and spirit into the place and helping make it what it was. Regretfully yours Jimmy Currin venue manager |
