The Osoyoos Quilters Guild opened its exhibition “Quilts Etc.” at The Art Gallery Osoyoos on Saturday, February 4. The show runs until Saturday, March 1, 2025.
The official opening is this Friday, February 7 from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. to coincide with the First Friday Art Walk. That event includes participation by The Okanagan Art Gallery and Wayside Select Books & Arts, which have their own exhibitions.
The quilters held their last show at TAGO in February 2023. This year’s show also includes a raffle for a quilt.
Some of the pieces are for sale, but many are listed as “not for sale,” because the quilters wish to keep them. For purchase inquiries, please contact the gallery during opening hours.
The gallery is on non-summer hours and is open from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. from Tuesday to Saturday.
The gallery is located at 8713 Main St. in Osoyoos, B.C., just west of Town Hall.
