GO Party 6

The Kelowna Art Gallery is pleased to announce our 6th GO Party! fundraiser on Friday, June 22, 2012, from 7 to 10 pm, entitled Illuminate.

Illuminate will officially kick off the Okanagan’s favorite season, while shining a light on the variety of exhibitions on view at the Gallery through the summer. To celebrate the summer solstice, the evening will feature three bars, a summer-themed buffet, door prizes and silent auction, a photo studio, four exhibitions, a hands-on art activity (lantern making), and musical entertainment by local recording artists Thomas Kjorven and Jeff Piattelli.

Guests are invited to break out their bright colours and dress to impress – Okanagan summer style! (Think fun, sophisticated, cocktail-friendly beach and patio wear…) Enjoy a variety of summer-themed cocktails on our patio, while celebrating light and art on the (second) longest night of the year!

Proceeds from this fundraising event will benefit the Gallery’s educational programming.

Advance tickets are just $20 for members, $30 for non-members, include two complimentary beverages, summer snack buffet, plus a ticket for the door prize draw, and will be available for purchase at the Gallery, at Mosaic Books, and online, or by calling 250-762-2226.
