covid - 19 update

As a result of the ongoing COVID-19 concerns, The Vernon Public Art Gallery is implementing operational changes to protect the health and safety of our visitors, staff and volunteers.

The VPAG puts the wellbeing of our community first. Therefore, starting today our programs will be on hold temporarily until this crisis has stabilized. The gallery will remain open with a skeleton staff on a modified schedule which will vary. These changes are necessary to ensure we adhere to the protocols that have been put in place by the Provincial and Federal health authorities.

Should you wish to visit the gallery, you are welcome! Our exhibitions will remain open at this time. We do ask that you to practice social distancing if you choose to come and view them.

The VPAG recognizes that this is a difficult and stressful time for everyone. To keep our creative minds busy and entertained, we will be creating online content for the public to enjoy (more details to follow).

As this is an ever-changing situation, please check our website and social media accounts for any further changes or updates in VPAG operations.

Thank you for your ongoing support,

Sincerely,

The VPAG

For more information on COVID-19 please view the BC Centre for Disease Control website

We encourage you to contact us with any questions about our operations, or programming. Our phones and emails will be closely monitored throughout this pandemic.

CURRENT EXHIBITIONS

Bryan Ryley, Pond, Acrylic on canvas, 84x84", 2019

Bryan Ryley

Morning Briefing
March 12 - May 13

Bryan Ryley is a Vernon based artist whose work moves back and forth between three media - painting, drawing and collage. Morning Briefing is a series of paintings constructed around emotional responses to the social climate of late 2018 and early 2019. They are really gestalts of feelings and forms, gatherings of emotions and structures, physical weights and surfaces that have been personally felt, driven by the social and political climate of these times.
The Vernon Public Art Gallery invites you to the opening reception of Morning Briefing on March 12th from 6-8 PM. The artist will be in attendance. Enjoy the new exhibition, drinks, appetizers and music.
