SUMMARY:Art Focus: November Art Demo
DESCRIPTION:Art Focus is pleased to present a demo by Michael King on Wed\, November 26\, from 7:00-9:00pm\, at The Outlet at Leigh Square in Port Coquitlam. All demos are free and open to the public! \n” Join me for an informal evening where I demonstrate how to break down a landscape into manageable forms and how I use design to create a painting that takes the viewer into and through the landscape.”\nMichael King\, a Canadian painter\, is passionate about plein air (outdoor) painting\, concentrating on capturing the essence of the landscape. His direct experiences in the outdoors serve as a driving force behind the creation of his more extensive studio works. \nAlways looking for the nuance of light\, shape and colour\, he combines representational elements with an abstracted style. His paintings strike a balance between realistic observation and abstract interpretation\, resulting in a unique and captivating aesthetic.

SUMMARY:Opening Day: ᓴᓂ ᐳᑐᒍ  Sharni Pootoogook: Creatures\, Shadows\, and Dreams
DESCRIPTION:Image: Sharni Pootoogook (1922-2003)\, Untitled\, 2001\, ink on paper. Collection of the Kelowna Art Gallery. Purchased with funds from the Permanent Collection Reserve\, 2022. Photo: Yuri Akuney\, Digital Perfections \n— \nᓴᓂ ᐳᑐᒍ  Sharni Pootoogook: Creatures\, Shadows\, and Dreams \nNovember 29\, 2025 – February 22\, 2026\nArt Gallery at Evergreen | 1205 Pinetree Way\, Coquitlam\, BC\nOpen Wednesdays 12 – 5pm\, Thursdays + Fridays 12 – 6pm\, Saturdays + Sundays 12 – 5pm\nFree admission \n— \nThe life and work of Sharni Pootoogook (1922–2003)\, though still largely unexplored\, draws clear and fundamental connections between first-generation artists in Kinngait and the current trends in Inuit graphic art. Her bold designs helped to shape and inform the course of Inuit printmaking during a period of great turmoil that threatened the Inuit’s land\, culture and traditional language. Drawn from the Kelowna Art Gallery’s Permanent Collection and supplemented by works lent from Simon Fraser University\, this exhibition features works on paper that demonstrate Pootoogook’s trademark style of heavy line work and well-balanced design. Blurring the boundaries between human and animal\, the spiritual and the visceral\, Pootoogook’s work creates space for wonder and uncertainty. \nOrganized and circulated by the Kelowna Art Gallery. Curated by Christine May. \n— \nJoin us on the opening day of Sharni Pootoogook: Creatures\, Shadows\, and Dreams from 3-5pm with a warm cup of hot chocolate to-go to kick off your night at Lights at Lafarge! \nThe AGE will be open during regular hours and hot chocolate will be available on Saturday November 29th from 3-5pm\, also on Fridays December 5\, 12\, and 19 from 5-6 pm. \nPay parking available on-site\, easy access from Millennium Line\, Lafarge Lake-Douglas College Skytrain Station. This event is wheelchair accessible.
