  • Alternator Centre for Contemporary Art 421 Cawston Avenue (unit 103) Kelowna, BC, V1Y 6Z1 Canada (map)

Patrick Lundeen, The Stooges, 2022, mixed media, dimensions variable.

In conjunction with his exhibition CHEAP! currently on view at the Kelowna Art Gallery, Alternator board member Patrick Lundeen will conduct a free workshop in two parts.

The first part will take the form of a tour of the exhibition at the Kelowna Art Gallery and the second part will take place in the RCA in studio 111. The workshop will focus on the artworks in the show with an emphasis on how they work mechanically to move and produce sound. After the gallery tour the workshop will move over to studio 111 where the topic will be discussed further with examples of Patrick’s previous works and a hands-on exploration of potential tools to activate your sculptures in the future.

Light refreshments will be provided. This event is free and open to the public, reserve your spot on Eventbrite.
