Michelle Droettboom initiated a "Share the Sunshine" project with local art groups to bring some sunshine to people who work in ICU and on the Covid ward at Kelowna General Hospital. 400 art panels were produced with grateful and uplifting messages that will be displayed in the hospital so workers can select their own piece of original art. 
The presentation of the art was on display on Oct. 28th at the Okanagan Mission Activity Centre and covered by local media.

​Mission Painters Art Group go outdoors to paint. Keeping to social distancing protocols, they enjoy the camaraderie of others and painting natural scenes in local parks. 
​                 Mission Painters Art by the Lake is an annual show and sale. 
2019's art show and sale was a great success. Over 800 visitors toured the show and many pieces of art were sold. The weather was perfect and people could talk with the artists on site. Because of the Covid-19 virus, we have had to forego the event in 2020 and have had to postpone this year's event. The new date for the show and sale is now tentatively scheduled for July 8 and 9, 2023.

The Mission Painters' Art Group was established in 1978. As a self directed group, ages 50 plus, we enjoy painting together on a weekly basis.  The Mission Painters' Group was created as part of the seniors’ recreational program, through the Service Delivery Agreement between the City of Kelowna and the Okanagan Mission Seniors Society. We host an annual art show and sale, called "Art by the Lake" in early July. Our group is diverse, working in many mediums and styles. While we are not a teaching group, we do seek critiquing of our work with fellow artists. This offers an opportunity for learning and improving in a relaxed and supportive environment. Due to space constraints, we have a limited membership. Painters wishing to join our group may inquire about the Drop-in Program by sending an email to vnewth@gmail.com .
