KAMLOOPS - There are many fantastic arts related groups in the Kamloops area, one of them being the Kamloops Printmakers Society. 

This non-profit organization provides studio facilities for artists working in print based media. The studio, located on McMaster Way, is equipped through the generous contribution of the society members, and provides a wide range of facilities for print based art practice including etching, screen-printing, and relief prints. 

Next up in the Kamloops Arts Council's Main Gallery, this group will be hosting an exhibition entitled Earth, Fire & Water. In this show, all of the participating artists will explore elements of earth, fire and water through their print based art practice such as etching, collagraphs and screen printing.

There are seven unique artists who will be contributing to this collective art show. All of these artists are based in the Kamloops and Thompson Okanagan area. Be sure to keep your eyes open for artworks from Linda Jules, Kelly Perry, Maureen Light, Darlene Kalynka, June Emery, Melaina Todd Ila Crawford.

There will be a closing reception on Aug. 22 from 5 to 7 p.m. at the gallery. The Kamloops Arts Council's Main Gallery is open Tuesday to Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Saturdays until 4pm. The gallery is located in the Old Courthouse Cultural Centre along with other great arts non-profit organizations, such as Theatre B.C. and Arnica Artist Run Centre.
