Bloom has been a highlight at Coast Collective for 11 years in a row

Don't miss Bloom 11 - a must see exhibit at Coast Collective Art Gallery from March 13th to March 31st. 

Nothing says ‘SPRING’ like flowers – from the humble dandelion, to the scented rose, to the colourful painted tongue – these artists will delight you with their varied interpretations in both 2-D and 3-D, including some unique pieces of metal sculpture. 

Gather the flowers but spare the buds.
 - Andrew Marvell

Operated by the Society for Arts on the South Island (SASI), whose mission statement is to nurture British Columbia arts and culture … through the production and support of showcases of fine art and craft, the provision of arts education programs, public performances, and special community cultural events, Coast Collective is delighted to host this event. 

Come and smell the roses at the Meet-the-Artists Reception on Saturday, March 16th from 1 to 3.  As Chubby Checker once said, “I want my flowers while I’m alive.”
