Midsummer's Eve of the Arts

The Vernon Public Art Gallery hosts the spectacular fundraiser Midsummer’s Eve of the Arts for the 38th annual year!

Join us for a vibrant evening of art and celebration at the Midsummer’s Eve of the Arts, as we support the future of the Vernon Public Art Gallery and its contributions to the arts and culture of Greater Vernon. Featuring local popular and breakthrough artists, this event promises to be a feast for the senses. Preview the spectacular pieces available at the MEA Auction Preview exhibition from June 26th to July 16th, 2024. Don’t miss this opportunity to support the art gallery and bid on a vast range of artworks and incredible experience packages generously donated by amazing artists and businesses. The evening will consist of hors d'oeuvres catered by Uprooted Kitchen and Catering, and Gumtree Catering, local BC wine and beer, live music, and of course the silent and live auction.
​
The silent auction will be open for bids until 10:30 pm on July 17th, 2024, with the live auction starting at 7:30 PM hosted by Valley Auctions’ Don Raffan. The funds raised during the live and silent auctions will provide crucial support to the Gallery throughout the year.
