What is billed as the largest art show in the Okanagan brought thousands of people together to support artists from the valley at the 31st annual Lake Country ArtWalk.
“This is a multi-arts festival and it is filled with thousands of pieces of original artwork, all kinds of forms, all kinds of styles — it’s such a rich, high-quality display of art,” said Sharon McCoubrey, Lake Country Art Walk chairperson.
The two-day festival has become so large that it’s been split between two locations, George Elliot Secondary School and HS Grenda Middle School, to accommodate the more than 140 Okanagan artists on site with their works of art.
“It is a hugely important event because it’s a real strong contributor to the culture of the valley and it’s a support of many artists who are at different stages of their art career,” said McCoubrey.
