Now at the Village Gallery – Acrylics and Oils: A Palette of Possibilities

From the rich, moody glazes of traditional oils to the vibrant, fast-drying brilliance of acrylics, artists have long embraced these two mediums to capture the world around them. Now, we’re bringing them together in one exciting exhibition.
Join us at the Monashee Arts Council Village Gallery for Acrylics and Oils: A Palette of Possibilities—a celebration of creative expression through texture, colour, and timeless technique. Featuring works by local artists, this show explores the possibilities that emerge when imagination meets pigment.
Exhibition Dates: April 28 – May 30, 2025
Location: The Village Gallery, 1975 Vernon St, Lumby
Come and be inspired. Discover how artists continue to push boundaries with these powerful mediums—from the 7th century to the present day.
