This summer, the Kelowna
Sculptors Network Society will exhibit their artwork in
Kiwanis Hall. The KSNS is a non-profit society dedicated to promoting
public awareness and appreciation of sculpture through workshops and
demonstrations. Currently,
there are 15 sculptors who share a love for three-dimensional work and are
diverse in their art practices and in the materials they use.
Throughout the summer,
visitors are invited to take part in workshops and learn about traditional
sculptural techniques such as medallion making, moulding, carving and
stone polishing. Experience the feel of sculpting for yourselves!
