Next Community Show...February, 2021!

Hmmm, perhaps not paintings on the wall, unless it is to depict another art form. Or if it could inspire the creation of...
No, we are not quite ready to put it out there yet. But maybe start doodling, sketching designs. perhaps something socially current. Something to stretch our small town persona. We are a hub, a centre for diversity, eh? People and ideas of all kinds. (Or we could be.)
Kind of like what we are putting the call out for,for our street art initiative.
And speaking of that...

The old Courthouse Arts Gallery on Nicola Avenue

The Courthouse Arts Gallery is a hub of activity for artists and arts enthusiasts, to meet and chat, and share materials, processes, skills, and interests.

 

The artwork exhibition in the Gallery changes almost monthly.

The Gallery Director, Gift Shop Artisans, and volunteers welcome visitors and guide them through the exhibits.

 

We encourage artists in the community through:

  • shows
  • workshops
  • classes
  • resources
  • and programs.

We welcome and support the visual arts, music, and the performing arts.
