Members in the News!

         We were excited, as a group, to have eight of our members accepted into the FCA-COC National OASIS Show in Peachland, BC, July 2017.  Three of them, Colleen J Dyson AFCA SCA, Tracey Mardon, and  Susan Priest were happy to receive awards at the show.
Susan and Tracey both with Awards of Excellence, and Colleen took home an Honor]urable Mention.
         
          Colleen J Dyson AFCA SCA will have a solo show at Nadine's Framing and Art Supplies in Vernon, BC, for the month of August 2017, and has been informed that her application to Artwalk 2017, held in September, has been accepted.

Our Christmas Luncheon held on December 1 at Rose's Pub in Kelowna.  We enjoyed a great lunch, a wee tipple, and, of course, we had our painting exchange.  A lot of fun that is very much looked forward to each year.
