The Allan Brooks Nature Centre BC Culture Days event invites painters and artists to come to the centre and paint “en plain air” (denoting or in the manner of a 19th-century style of painting outdoors), with a chance to win prizes in one of four categories: Experienced, Emerging, Youth and People’s Choice!

This event will engage the local and provincial community and create awareness of the artists working in the North Okanagan, as well as highlight the incredible beauty of this endangered grassland habitat.

This is a FREE event sponsored by the Arts Council of the North Okanagan and The Allan Brooks Nature Centre. Saturday, October 7 from 8-3:30pm. Artists can come register on the day-of, and choose a spot along the trail for the day. At 2pm, the artists will bring their art up to the centre for judging and refreshments.

Come celebrate art and nature with us.
