Wait a minute, is that art in that vending machine?

Correct.

So, can I purchase the pieces?

Absolutely.

And these items are all created by local artists?

Roger that.

This time around there are 2 vending machines with 10 artists each. ArtMart lands at the Kelowna Art Gallery and BNA Brewing Co. Tasting Room for a limited time. For this sixth edition of the project, the vending machines will showcase selected original works by Kelowna Art Gallery and Alternator member artists.

So, whether you choose to rock some temporary tattoos, take home a one-of-a-kind original mini painting, or fall in love with quirky felted mushrooms, visitors will enjoy simply browsing through all of the imaginative creations.

The unique works range from $5.00 – $50.00.

Artists included in the Kelowna Art Gallery edition include: Ken Ackerman, Cool Arts, Aubrey Creasor, Paulette Deyholos, Pip Dryden, Isabella Ford, Clea Haugo, Victoria Russell, Gabrielle Strong, and Jessica Wisniewski.

At BNA, you’ll find works by: Amy Bradshaw, Amy Van Dongen, Melissa Menzies, Marc LaTulippe, Taylor Sandell, Darian Goldin Stahl, Shauna Kay, Christina Knittel, Ashleigh Green, and Lisa Redfern.

Your purchase is a great way to support both local artists and the work done by both Galleries.

ArtMart is presented at BNA Brewing Co. and the Kelowna Art Gallery in partnership with the Alternator Centre for Contemporary Art, and with support from the Central Okanagan Foundation.
