September 1, 2020 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
Join syilx artist Sheldon Pierre Louis for a talk about his artistic practice and his work, puti kʷala – we are still here, currently on display at the Kelowna Art Gallery’s satellite space at the Kelowna International Airport. Sheldon Pierre Louis is a member of the syilx Nation, a Councillor at Okanagan Indian Band, and a community leader whose work is influenced by his ancestral roots. He mentors youth from his own and surrounding communities and takes joy in the mutual inspiration fostered through these collaborations.
