Gallery Highlights


Clara Ritcey & Ellen
Ferguson talk about
Pioneer Food: Gather-
ing, Cooking, & Pre-
serving.
Learn how very differ-
ent pioneerlives were
in Upper Clearwater in
the early years of the
1900s when food was
much simpler, no-one
bothered with hunting
licenses, and the sea-
sons of the year deter-
mined what was served
for dinner.

Wells Gray Gallery was opened June 2012 by a small group of artists and artisans wanting to contrib-
ute to the development of local arts and culture opportunities. Run by members of Wells Gray Art-
ist Society (WGAS), incorporated as a not-for-profit BC society in March 2014, the gallery continues
to operate seasonally from May-October and December. Wells Gray Gallery features the work of
several local artists: pottery, painting, photography, art cards, woodwork, home dcor, textiles and
much more. In addition to providing a gallery venue for the community, WGAS co-hosts community
events (the Night Market and Winter Market) and coordinates workshops, artist demonstrations and
other special events. Members of WGAS display and sell their work through the Gallery.
Wells Gray Artist Society isnt just for artists! The society welcomes support from champions of the
arts through volunteerism (in the gallery or behind the scenes), In Kind donations, and financial spon-
sorship.
For more information about Membership/Sponsorship contact Sara Bromley @ 250-674-0002
Wells Gray Gallery is located in the lower level of Wells Gray Information Centre at the intersec-
tion of highway 5 and Clearwater Valley Road.

The musical lineup may change according to the availability of our volunteer musicians.
