Pottery Studio
Our pottery studio hosts over 70 members, as well as 100+ workshop participants per year. Membership benefits include access to kilns, glazes and tools, as well as arts opportunities such as sales and exhibitions.
Members Salon
Welcome to the First Annual VISAC Member’s Salon: Show and Sale. The Salon is a celebration of the immense talent of local visual artists. We are so inspired by the skill and variety of the artists who call the West Kootenay region home and are excited to share this work with the public and folks who might not otherwise be able to experience art in this way.
Submissions are open now until September 13, 2024. There is no entry fee but artists must hold a current VISAC membership to enter. Not yet a member? Visit our website or stop by the gallery.
Fall Class Registration Open
We are pleased to be offering Itty Bitty Art Time, Visual Exploration Club, and Pottery Workshops. Facilitated by our talented arts practitioners, all of our programming fosters creativity in an encouraging environment.
$35 for 35 Years
VISAC is proud to be celebrating 35 years of excellent visual arts activity in the Greater Trail Area. Incorporated in 1989, the Greater Trail Visual Arts Centre Society has a long history of representing visual artists in a community-minded way.
We’ll be organizing events and activities all year long that celebrate and reflect our long history of serving the arts in the community. If you’ve long been a patron or have never visited us before, we invite you to celebrate with us this year.
The VISAC Gallery operates with the generous support of our members, corporate sponsors, and community partners.
