A Curated Creative House.
A home for serious creators in downtown Victoria.
The Club
Haus of Owl is a curated creative house in downtown Victoria. Musicians, filmmakers, photographers, podcasters, writers and dancers work here side by side, and that proximity is the point: collaborations, referrals and new work start in the hallway.
Under one roof you'll find Creator Spaces and desks, studios by the hour and the day, a curated membership, the Creator Directory, production services, projection and equipment rentals, and events and workshops. We serve committed creators at every stage, from pre-professional to established.

SCOTT ALDERSON: ANOMALY
short film
A Haus of Owl Production Directed by Jordan Dack
A cinematic gallery of poems, representing nine of Scott Alderson's most recent works from his book "Finding Jamie". "Anomaly" is a provocative dreamscape of words, imagery, and music set to an almost dystopian hum of anger, loss and, in the end, gratitude.
We gratefully acknowledge the support of the Canada Council for the Arts.
