Press Release
This year marks the 10th anniversary of the annual Art Alchemy Square Foot Show and even a pandemic couldn’t keep us from finding a way to safely showcase the work of the artists up and down the island, on the mainland, and across Canada.
Artists have been busy creating in various mediums to fit the parameters of Art Alchemy’s Square Foot Show. We will have artwork from local talent and new arrivals to the valley, artists from Powell River, Qualicum Beach, Canmore, Calgary and more. After 10 years of doing the show, the word is spreading and it is such a treat for all!
