About Us
Cool Arts finally found a permanent home in our eleventh year of operation thanks to generous support from Community Living British Columbia. Our society is located upstairs in Studio 201 in the Rotary Centre for the Arts in the heart of Kelowna's Cultural District. Thank you so much to all of the organizations and individuals who have supported us since 2003.
Events
Cool Arts hosts a variety of events throughout the year to help showcase the work of our artists, fundraise, and/or to introduce the community to the work we do. Our board members and other volunteers work tirelessly to bring an extraordinary experience to the guests of our events.
Exhibitions
Over the past 15 years Cool Arts artists have shown their work as part of the
group at various locations around Kelowna, BC.
One of the biggest accomplishments at Cool Arts was establishing We Are
Artists, an exhibition the founder
curated in collaboration with the
Kelowna Art Gallery in 2009.
