Summerland’s history of the visual arts dates from the early 1950s with the founding of the Summerland Art Club. In 1968, the Summerland Community Arts Council (SCAC) was established. Our original home was the old bank building on Main Street where the Okanagan Regional Library is now located.
Awesome Arts is our popular program designed especially for adults with diverse abilities. Participants will learn new art forms and create their own beautiful pieces to take home with them.
Awesome Arts is also a great way to meet people and make new friends!

We’re looking for talented and motivated community members to join our volunteer Board of Directors.
