SUMMARY:Art Exhibition: SCAC - wa shew̓áy̓ ta x̱wítl’em “Growing Strings / Fibres”
DESCRIPTION:to Aug 16th. wa shew̓áy̓ ta x̱wítl’em is the name of a new growing space in Gibsons that brings together Indigenous plants traditionally used for weaving\, cordage\, dye\, and textile practices while supporting the restoration of the pond ecosystem and surrounding habitat. This garden is a living space of cultural revitalization\, ecological care\, and intergenerational knowledge sharing rooted in Sḵwx̱wú7mesh teachings. \nAlongside the launch of this space\, this exhibition shares the work of artists whose work expresses this interconnectedness. Some are artists who have led the creation of wa shew̓áy̓ ta x̱wítl’em\, including Cease Wyss\, Jaz Whitford and Megan Dewar. Their work shares the central ethos of the garden – to be in community as a verb – to commune\, meaning-make and story-bear as a collective act of decolonial joy.

SUMMARY:Art Exhibition: SCAC - Dawn Myers : Splendour: Celebrating The Collaborations In Our Natural World
DESCRIPTION:to Aug 15th. In the world of weaving sculptural forms with willow\, two powerful – and at times disparate – influences come together. \nBasketry is an ancient craft that has been practiced in virtually all human societies. Weavers then and now learn exacting techniques and styles to make their works useful and durable. \nThe pieces in this exhibit were inspired by Dawn’s daily walks in the forest and along the ocean shore\, and the great diversity in Nature. Today the word “diversity” is used often in our ever-changing society. But before the word ever left a human’s lips\, Nature had the concept perfected. Species\, all species\, are fully interdependent on their neighbours. Thus\, Nature does not merely tolerate diversity\, it thrives in it. It celebrates it. It stakes everything on it. Let us do the same.

SUMMARY:Art Exhibition: SCAC - wa shew̓áy̓ ta x̱wítl’em “Growing Strings / Fibres”
DESCRIPTION:to Aug 16th. wa shew̓áy̓ ta x̱wítl’em is the name of a new growing space in Gibsons that brings together Indigenous plants traditionally used for weaving\, cordage\, dye\, and textile practices while supporting the restoration of the pond ecosystem and surrounding habitat. This garden is a living space of cultural revitalization\, ecological care\, and intergenerational knowledge sharing rooted in Sḵwx̱wú7mesh teachings. \nAlongside the launch of this space\, this exhibition shares the work of artists whose work expresses this interconnectedness. Some are artists who have led the creation of wa shew̓áy̓ ta x̱wítl’em\, including Cease Wyss\, Jaz Whitford and Megan Dewar. Their work shares the central ethos of the garden – to be in community as a verb – to commune\, meaning-make and story-bear as a collective act of decolonial joy.

SUMMARY:Art Exhibition: SCAC - Dawn Myers : Splendour: Celebrating The Collaborations In Our Natural World
DESCRIPTION:to Aug 15th. In the world of weaving sculptural forms with willow\, two powerful – and at times disparate – influences come together. \nBasketry is an ancient craft that has been practiced in virtually all human societies. Weavers then and now learn exacting techniques and styles to make their works useful and durable. \nThe pieces in this exhibit were inspired by Dawn’s daily walks in the forest and along the ocean shore\, and the great diversity in Nature. Today the word “diversity” is used often in our ever-changing society. But before the word ever left a human’s lips\, Nature had the concept perfected. Species\, all species\, are fully interdependent on their neighbours. Thus\, Nature does not merely tolerate diversity\, it thrives in it. It celebrates it. It stakes everything on it. Let us do the same.

SUMMARY:The Kube: Opening Reception - Nina Kroeker
DESCRIPTION:‘Community Forest’ This collection began with many walks through my local community forest. I started being drawn to study the individual trees of the forest more closely. As I started painting them\, I began to notice that each tree needed a slightly different handling; from expressive and thick brushstrokes. I use bright colours to portray the way that I feel in nature; vibrant and alive.

SUMMARY:GPAG: Artist Talk with Janine Dunn
DESCRIPTION:Join us with exhibiting artist Janine Dunn on Saturday\, August 8th\, 2pm – 3pm. Free and all are welcome to attend! \nIllustrating symbolic dimensions of celebration\, abundance\, and scarcity\, Janine Dunn’s exhibition we mark the seasons in love features landscapes and human figures appearing in nebulous pastoral space\, with a felt sense of emotion and relationship between the characters. Janine Dunn is an artist and farmer living in Gibsons\, BC\, who shares stories of daily life on her farm and brings forward topics resonating within the current moment through her artistic practice. She draws on personal impressions of motherhood\, animal husbandry\, degradation and repair\, shared labour and hospitality\, and isolation and solitude. Working with industrial\, agricultural\, and domestic materials\, she collaborates with the weather and elements to develop her canvases. Dunn has exhibited her work in solo and group exhibitions on the Sunshine Coast and throughout Vancouver\, and was commissioned to create The Landing Eye\, a permanent public art installation in Gibsons Landing.

SUMMARY:PR – The Alley: Artist Trading Card Summit 2026
DESCRIPTION:Calling all artists on the shores of the Salish Sea and beyond! You are invited to come for an afternoon of Artist Trading Cards. \nSUNDAY\, AUGUST 9\n12:30 to 2:00pm\nThe Alley\, upstairs from our store \nWhat’s that? You don’t know what Artist Trading Cards are? Well\, in short\, Artist Trading Cards are self-made unique works or small series\, signed and dated on the reverse by the artist/producer\, exchanged and collected by the people who participate in this collaborative event. There are only 2 “rules”: the cards must be 2.5″x3.5″ (the same as modern hockey cards or baseball cards)\, and they are only to be traded\, not sold. \nWe hold regular ATC meetups every month on the last Thursday of the month\, but that doesn’t really work well for anyone who has to take a ferry so for our birthday month\, we decided to have a ‘summit’ and time it in such a way that folks who have to travel from away can make a day of it and still get home and sleep in their own beds. See below for \nMake them ahead of time\, or make them on the spot. We’ll bring some blanks and other art supplies. \nAnd this is a family-friendly event! \nFERRY & OTHER TRAVEL INFO \nComing from Vancouver Island? Catch the 9:55am from Little River & head home on the 5:15pm (or 8:45pm) home \n[Hot tip: the location is only 2 blocks from the Westview ferry terminal so you don’t even need to bring your car! Unless you want to zip around elsewhere after the summit before you head home] \nComing up the Sunshine Coast? You’ll want the 10:35am from Earl’s Cove\, and the 4:55pm (or later) home. \nWant to make a weekend of it and also attend our birthday party on Saturday\, August 8? There are several accommodations within walking distance: \nWaterways\, A Boutique Hotel\nBase Camp Suites\nBeyond Bliss Suites \nPlus loads more a little further away\, and some truly amazing camping opportunities. Reach out to our wonderful Visitor Information Centre if you need any more information or advice.

SUMMARY:Art Exhibition: SCAC - Dawn Myers : Splendour: Celebrating The Collaborations In Our Natural World
DESCRIPTION:to Aug 15th. In the world of weaving sculptural forms with willow\, two powerful – and at times disparate – influences come together. \nBasketry is an ancient craft that has been practiced in virtually all human societies. Weavers then and now learn exacting techniques and styles to make their works useful and durable. \nThe pieces in this exhibit were inspired by Dawn’s daily walks in the forest and along the ocean shore\, and the great diversity in Nature. Today the word “diversity” is used often in our ever-changing society. But before the word ever left a human’s lips\, Nature had the concept perfected. Species\, all species\, are fully interdependent on their neighbours. Thus\, Nature does not merely tolerate diversity\, it thrives in it. It celebrates it. It stakes everything on it. Let us do the same.

SUMMARY:Art Exhibition: SCAC - wa shew̓áy̓ ta x̱wítl’em “Growing Strings / Fibres”
DESCRIPTION:to Aug 16th. wa shew̓áy̓ ta x̱wítl’em is the name of a new growing space in Gibsons that brings together Indigenous plants traditionally used for weaving\, cordage\, dye\, and textile practices while supporting the restoration of the pond ecosystem and surrounding habitat. This garden is a living space of cultural revitalization\, ecological care\, and intergenerational knowledge sharing rooted in Sḵwx̱wú7mesh teachings. \nAlongside the launch of this space\, this exhibition shares the work of artists whose work expresses this interconnectedness. Some are artists who have led the creation of wa shew̓áy̓ ta x̱wítl’em\, including Cease Wyss\, Jaz Whitford and Megan Dewar. Their work shares the central ethos of the garden – to be in community as a verb – to commune\, meaning-make and story-bear as a collective act of decolonial joy.
