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.

Alternator Chat // Alternator in the Community

We are excited to announce that we will be resuming the Alternator Chats in the new year with a series dedicated to professional artistic development. The 2021 winter series are all about helping you reach your 2021 art-related new year’s resolutions and goals!

Artists and creatives from all disciplines and stages of their careers are invited to participate in ZOOM sessions taking place on Thursdays from 5-6 p.m. from January 7 - February 25, 2021. This eight-part series will provide an opportunity to connect with artists and professionals around topics such as grant and proposal writing, ways to maintain an art-life balance, selling your artwork, and tax tips for artists.

These free, informal sessions are ideal for those who are interested in learning more about logistic and practical matters involved in being an artist -- the things they don’t necessarily teach you in school, and provide an opportunity to learn how your peers are coping, and to share techniques and frustrations of being a working artist. 

As an artist-run centre, the Alternator provides a community for artists who are interested in taking their first steps to exhibit their artwork and connecting with other artists and getting feedback from peers and professionals. Learn about opportunities for our members to develop their practices and connect with other artists, including the Members’ Gallery, Studio 111, the Alternator ArtMart, and partnering with the Alternator on projects and events.

Facilitated by Moozhan Ahmadzadegan

This Alternator Chat will be recorded and made available on our website.
