Smithers, Art Galleries & Artists

The other night, I attended the opening reception for Nigel Fox's showing of "Milestone: A Fox Year in Painting". It was a great show of colorful paintings that everyone at the event thoroughly enjoyed.
The Smithers art gallery tends to always have an opening night for a new exhibit, and I encourage everyone to attend if they have the chance. With the catalyst of refreshments and a healthy appreciation of art, you can strike up a conversation with your neighbour and get to know the community. One can experience a warm Smithers welcome, and enjoy the exhibit surrounded by (old or new) friends.
