ArtWalk
ArtWalk is a highly successful annual arts festival that features more than 300
Okanagan artists, photographers and sculptors as well as musical entertainment,
art demonstrations, paint-offs, live model drawing, children's activities, live theatre
productions, prizes, great food, and much more.
ArtWalk began in 1994 and in 1999 became a Lake Country community event which has grown
in popularity and now draws thousands of people from all over the country.
The 22nd annual ArtWalk took place September 12-13, 2015 on the theme: “Light: Illuminating Art” – chosen
because 2015 was the United Nations International Year of Light. The Opening Ceremony included the official
unveiling of the community’s 20th anniversary mural and a Fire Poi performance by Lake Country School of Dance.
In 2016, the theme for the September 10-11, 2016 event will be “Art Off the Rails”.
