The Monashee Arts Council and Village Gallery are excited to present Aging, Art and the Modern Elder. This Exhibition comes from 16 artists belonging to the North Okanagan Federation of Canadian Artists (NOFCA) who are themselves elders.

This exhibitions focus has been to educate the general community about aging, elderhood and ageism with an aim to change society’s attitude towards aging and mortality from one that where we try to avoid the signs of our own aging and mortality with a sense of dread and instead celebrate the opportunities and joys what can come with it.

Using a variety of mediums and styles each artist explores their own relationship with art and what it is to be an elder in these modern times.
