Kelowna Art Gallery showcases artistic talents of its members

70 local artists presented at Kelowna Art Gallery’s annual members’ exhibition

-

More than 70 local artists answered the call to submit work for this year’s annual members’ exhibition at Kelowna Art Gallery.

The group show is aptly entitled Bring Out Your Best and submission­s in a wide variety of media were welcomed, including painting, sculpture, drawing, mixed media, photograph­y and digital media.

The exhibition is currently on view in The Front project space of the gallery, which is free and open to the public, and will run until Jan. 13.

“It is always exciting to see the wide range of works contribute­d for the annual members’ exhibition,” says Nataley Nagy, executive director at the gallery. “We are once again thrilled to be able to share these with the community as one of the many ways we give back to our valued members for their ongoing support.” A reception to celebrate the artistic accomplish­ments of these talented individual­s will be held on Dec. 7 from 6 to 8 p.m. at Kelowna Art Gallery. This free event is open to members and guests by invitation. A digital publicatio­n will be produced to accompany the exhibition with images of each work along with informatio­n about the artist and the piece. The publicatio­n will soon be available to view on an iPad in the exhibition space as well as online via the Kelowna Art Gallery’s website. See more at Kelownaart­gallery.com.
