Get ready for our big fall splash of colour! Held in conjunction with Oliver BC’s Festival of the Grape (part of the Okanagan Wine Festival), the weekend is a perfect blend of arts and culture.
The Fall Art Show promises to be the biggest and best one we’ve ever had. We are up to 104 entries, well over our previous record. Sculpture, fabric arts, fine art, photography — we celebrate art in all its forms.
Here’s what you can do at the Show:
* Tour the exhibit * Meet the artists * Vote for your favourite in each of five categories * Buy some great artwork (all exhibit pieces for sale) * Bid at the Silent Auction * View special exhibits : The RipOff Artists present their multi-media interpretations of “Pink Tulip” * Learn more about Oliver’s artists and arts council * Become a 2010 Member of the Oliver Community Arts Council * Listen to some fine jazz stylings by local performers * Tempt your tastebuds and wine palate at a reception catered by Crush Pad Bistro (of The Mesa Hotel) * Schmingle! (Meet, mingle and schmooze in true Oliver style!)
