Winter Art Launch at Grizzli Winery- Photography Only Exhibition

Grizzli Winery Art Gallery’s newest Winter Exhibition, ‘Changing Season,’ portrays the works of four Okanagan photographers for its “first of its kind” here at the gallery- A photography-only collection.

Walk through the gallery’s entrance to explore the beauty of Mother Earth’s changing of the season through the lens of four talented photographers. Let the winter landscapes and peaceful white beauty take your breath away. Be inspired by springtime’s blooming and vibrant colours. Let the cheerful and playfulness of the dog days of summer bring a new breath of life. Be in awe of the ever-lasting beauty the only fall season can bring.

See the creativity of outside-the-box imagery, wildlife, landscape, and more. ‘Changing Seasons’ is about embracing individual perspectives and seeing a story through the camera’s lens.
