The Chapter Show (which will be a Qualifying Show of the FCA open only to members of the chapter) will run from June 1^st to July 30^th at the Grizzli Winery. The theme this year is Everything Under the Sun which is broad enough to include many types of work.

The Regional Show OASIS (which will also be a Qualifying Show but will be open to members of the Central Okanagan, South Okanagan, North Okanagan and the Thompson Nicola Shuswap Chapters) will run from July 1^st to July 31^st at the Peachland Art Gallery.

The Call for Entries for the two Qualifying shows will be coming out soon so watch your inboxes.

The OASIS 2022 show was a great success with a total of 9 paintings sold from the Peachland Art Gallery and through the Online Gallery.
