We’re very excited to announce a special edition of Outspoken!

The Okanagan is home to so many incredible writers, and we wanted to shine a spotlight on some of the talented authors working right here in our region.

Join us at SummerGate Winery (**ery ) on Tuesday, September 15, as we welcome six South Okanagan authors. Each author will share a short reading from their work, followed by a Q&A, book sales and plenty of time for conversation.

Come discover some wonderful local voices, have a glass of w**e and perhaps find your next read.

COME TOGETHER WITH US ❤️

Join us Thursday, September 3 from 5–7 PM for the opening of RELATIONSHIPS, an exhibition by Penticton artist Mary Kate Woodward.

“We have more in common than separates us.”

That idea feels especially relevant right now. Relationships explores the connections between people, animals and the natural world, and after the past few weeks, we’ve certainly been reminded of the importance of community.

Our neighbours in Penticton supported and welcomed so many Summerland evacuees, and we’re happy to welcome Penticton artist Mary Kate Woodward to our gallery.

The exhibition has been curated by glassblower Sean Kerrigan, with w**e poured by Danny from Thornhaven Winery and flowers by Colleen at Bella Vita Flowers.

🌻We’ll also have Summerland Strong ceramic magnets by Penticton potter Heart & Solace, with 100% of proceeds supporting wildfire relief.

⏰Thursday, September 3 | 5–7 PM
Summerland Art Gallery
George Ryga Arts & Cultural Centre

Everyone is welcome! Come as you are, support our artists, our local businesses and each other. ❤️
