the guests to enjoy.


“MEA is not only a significant fundraiser for the gallery, but it is also
an event that the community deeply values and looks forward to each year.
Although this year has brought some challenges that we will have to
maneuver, the VPAG is working hard to make this a memorable evening, that
connects our community as it does every year.” Dauna Kennedy, Executive
Director

The Vernon Public Art Gallery is a not-for-profit, charitable organization
committed to fostering an appreciation of the visual arts for all members
of the community. As the oldest art gallery in the Interior Region of
British Columbia, the VPAG has been an important part of cultural tourism,
and a centre for educational and cultural activities in the Okanagan for
60+ years. The VPAG is constantly growing and is currently looking forward
to its exciting transition into its larger facility at the new Cultural
Centre in Vernon. We hope to consistently develop and increase our funds to
allow us to promote visual arts in the broader community by presenting more
quality exhibitions, educational programs and annual community events.
