SKSS Kamloops Calendar Exhibition & Fundraiser 2017
Explore-Discover-Experience, Kamloops 2017 exhibition
and fundraiser celebrates the 11th year of this unique opportunity for youth to
represent our community through artistic vision.
Beginning with a class presentation from Monica Dickinson
and Ken Levin of Tourism Kamloops, South Kamloops Secondary art students
consider the importance of promoting aspects of Kamloops by discussing attractions,
activities and things to do in our City. With this in mind, each student
painted an individual interpretation of discovering, exploring, and experiencing
tourism in Kamloops and surrounding area. After the acrylic paintings were completed, images
for the printed calendar and cards were selected from a special community
jury: Anyssa Gill, Kamloops Art Gallery, Art Instructor; Tara Look and
Rachel Lewis, Tourism Kamloops; and Mr. Blake Buemann, SKSS Vice
Principal.
Over 40 student paintings are on view
at the
Sagebrush Lobby Gallery until December 16, 2016.
Please consider joining our
community reception on Wednesday, December 7th,
2016 at 6:30 pm.
