Visualizing the Elements

Vernon Community Arts Centre 2704a Highway 6, Vernon, BC

"Visualizing the Elements" invites you to explore the elements through artists' interpretations of earth, wind, fire, and water. From the grounding energy of the earth to the freedom of the air, the strength of a blazing fire, and the calm of a flowing river, each piece acts as a doorway to experience the elemental forces shaping our world and our experiences within it. This exhibit offers more than a visual journey; it extends an invitation to feel, reflect, and deeply connect with the elements through various artistic mediums. Open Daily from May 31st - July 29th. Hours: Monday to Thursday 9:00 am-9:00 pm | Friday & Saturday 9:00 am-5:00 pm | Sunday 12:00 pm-4:00 pm.
