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. https://youtu.be/yDeGh14JsgY https://youtu.be/eNhqNZyoZIw Mission Painters Art Group go outdoors to paint.

The building is at risk of being demolished as early as 2025. A committee has been formed to bring awareness of this issue and garner support for it to remain.
Although seniors uses this centre during the weekdays it is available for rental from the City in the evenings and on weekends. It is a beautiful location on the lake and once demolished would not be replaced.

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 9, 10, 2022.
